d1912e7839 Do not not look for modules in the current working directory first. This is
to prevent from accidentally loading ./module.kmod when we actually wanted to
load module from the system module area.

To load a module from a filesystem path, the module name must contain at
least on path separator character (/), to load a module from the system
module areas, the name must not contain a path separator character:

modload ./mymod.kmod      # loads mymod.kmod from the curren directory
modload mymod             # loads mymod.kmod from the system module area

e73ffdda13 Add rump client support for module utilities. It should be noted
that while modstat and modunload and builtin modules work exactly
the same as in the host case, modload loads file system kernel
modules from the rump kernel namespace.  By default, archs which
have rump support for the kernel kernel ABI have the host module
directory mapped into the rump kernel namespace at the same location
(/stand/...).  Therefore, if the *host* module directory is populated,
"rump.modload foo" will work as expected.  Otherwise, RUMP_MODULEBASE
can be used to point to the module directory.

47371f5f63 Add -p option which outputs a property list suitable for loading with a
module.  This is in preparation for having the kernel load an optional
<module>.prop alongside a module, which is useful for passing options
to autoloaded modules and modules loaded at boot time.

a09b055053 it's not correct to use MAXPATHNAME-sized buffer for link command, as
pointed out by Klaus Klein (original idea was that it should hold at least
the pathname ...); instead, let the ELF and a.out backends allocate memory
for the link command, and get rid of the fixed size buffer altogether

ade4df3adc implement support for forced LKM load, which makes the kernel skip
the version checks, using new -f flag and LMFORCE ioctl

Hopefully the description in the manpage is discouraging enough so that
nobody would dare even _think_ of using forced loads. A warning
message is written to stderr when this is used, just in case.
