blackhole(4), except that blackhole(4) uses sysctl's. This xref
obviously isn't appropriate unless we want to xref all the other man
pages which mention sysctls, which we obviously don't (we may want to
list those sysctls, but that's another story).

Try to make sysctl options slightly more orthogonal:
...
- introduce a -o option that displays opaque variables.
- introduce a -x option that displays opaque variables in full.
- deprecate -A in favor of -ao and -X in favor of -ax.
- remove -A and -X from usage() and SYNOPSIS (but not from DESCRIPTION).
- ignore -a if one or more variables were listed on the command line.
- deprecate -w, it is not needed to determine the user's intentions.
- some language and style cleanup in the man page.
This commit should not break any existing scripts.

Added missing references to user.stream_max and user.tzname_max. These

names, but the sysconf names don't have POSIX2 or "posix2" like all the
other POSIX2 names.
