'read' pessimistically read(2)s one byte at a time, which can be quite
silly for large environments in slow emulators.
In my boring user environment, truss shows that the number of read()
syscalls to source rc.subr and invoke list_vars is reduced by something like
3400 to 60. ministat(1) shows a significant time difference of about -71%
for my environment.

This adds new keywords to rc/service to enable/disable a service's
rc.conf(5) variable and "delete" to remove the variable.
When the "service_delete_empty" variable in rc.conf(5) is set to "YES"
(default is "NO") an rc.conf.d file (in /etc/ or /usr/local/etc) is
deleted if empty after modification using "service $foo delete".

The reasons for this are forward looking to pkgbase:
* /sbin/init is a special binary; try not to replace it with
every package update because an rc script was touched.
(a follow-up commit will make init its own package)
* having rc in its own place will allow more easy replacement
of the rc framework with alternatives, such as openrc.
