the snapshot gets created.
With this change dump(8) no longer dumps the zero-sized, but named
snapshot it is working on. Same applies to fsck_ffs(8).

While here modify snap_open() to accept a character device as its
first arg and remove now unneeded get_snap_device().

Promoting cachebufs to uint64_t is not necessary as it gets limited to

particular, the caller can now choose whether to wait for the condition
to be met, and if the caller of LFCNWRAPSTOP dies or otherwise closes
the descriptor, the filesystem is started again. Updated the ckckp
regression test to use the new semantics.
dump_lfs(8) now uses the fcntls to implement LFS-style snapshotting through
the -X flag, addressing PR#33457 albeit not using fss(4). Fixed a couple
other problems with dump_lfs that manifested themselves during testing.
- New option `-x backup' takes the dump from a snapshot backed up by `backup'.
The snapshot will be deleted on exit.
- New option `-X' as a synonym for `-x mountpoint' where `mountpoint' is the
file system to be dumped.

- Let the copy-on-write functions return an error so spec_strategy

- Add special handling of snapshot files:
Snapshots may not be opened for writing and the attributes are read-only.
Use the mtime as the time this snapshot was taken.
Deny mtime updates for snapshot files.
- Add function transferlockers to transfer any waiting processes from
one lock to another.

It could be the first alternate for a ffsv1 filesystem with 64k blocks.
