Robert Watson f2d2d69438 Rework netisr policy mechanism so that per-protocol dispatch policies can
be represented:

- A single policy namespace is defined, consisting of four possible
  policies: "default" to use the global default, "deferred" to force
  deferred dispatch, "direct" to employ direct dispatch where possible, and
  "hybrid" which makes a dynamic decision based on CPU affinity, ordering,
  etc.  Routines are implemented to convert between strings and an integer
  namespace.

- A new global variable, netisr_dispatch_policy, subsumes existing global
  variables for direct dispatch, forced direct dispatch, etc, and is used
  for explicit policy interpretation and composition.  Old variables remain
  so that they can be exported by legacy sysctls for use by old netstat(1)
  binaries.  A new sysctl and tunable, netisr.dispatch.policy, accepts the
  above strings for specifying a global policy default.

- The protocol registration structure, netisr_handler, grows an nh_dispatch
  field, which accepts a per-policy policy override.  The default value is
  '0', which corresponds to "default", meaning that protocols will accept
  the global default policy unless otherwise specified.

- Policies are now interpreted and composed explicitly at various points in
  packet dispatch; protocol policies override global policies.

- Protocols grow the ability to express a non-opinion about affinity even
  when implenting m2cpuid by returning NETISR_CPUID_NONE.  In that case, the
  framework falls back on source ordering, rather than simply using the
  current CPU.

These changes are in support of allowing link layer re-dispatch based on
RSS or similar hashes provided by NICs, especially in the case where the
number of hardware receive queues matches hardware core count, rather than
hardware thread count, requiring further software redistributeon.  (i.e.,
on RMI XLR).
