8795154eac sysctl: warn when separators are repeated
For some reason sysctl earlier allowed quite strange separators.

% sysctl kernel./.pty.nr
kernel./.pty.nr = 6
% sysctl kernel///pty//////////nr
kernel...pty..........nr = 6

This commit does not disallow that sort of constructs, but will warn
about them. In future disallowing these might be reasonable thing to
do.

% sysctl kernel./.pty.nr
sysctl: separators should not be repeated: ./.pty.nr
kernel./.pty.nr = 6

100959274c sysctl: add --system switch
instead of requiring distributions to construct a loop around sysctl
in boot scripts just scan a set of default directories if the --system
switch is used.

Config files are applied in alphabetic order of their base name.
Each base name is only applied once according to the directory
preference. /etc/sysctl.conf is always applied last.

81df8e2630 sysctl: options handling & usage output
The sysctl now uses getopt_long and has help screen which be user
friendly. Rest of the modernization is left later, since this is
a command is used in scripts, and changing for instance error
printing to use warn & warnx could break stuff.
