- 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.

Don't install "setgid tty", and remove now unnecessary gid/egid swapping.
Remove utmp trawling code pulled in from usr.bin/who.
The Code is now simpler, and more portable (without the utmp cruft) too.
This is derived from similar work in OpenBSD.

To be used with tape changers which load the next tape when the current one is
ejected.
While I'm there fix eject handling for remote tape.
- if it's a path to an unmounted file-system listed in /etc/fstab, use
that instead of assuming the user wanted a subtree dump of the parent
directory. this restores the behaviour of dump before the subtree
dumping code went in.
- if it's a path to a mounted file-system which is not in /etc/fstab,
use the info from getmntinfo(3). previously, dump would choke.
* implement error checked malloc(), calloc(), strdup(), and use
appropriately (some of the calloc()s weren't being checked)
* use 'file-system' instead of 'filesystem' in the man page
* exit after providing an estimate if -S was given. the PR used -e,
but checking around indicated prior art in Solaris usin -S.
* remove superfluous 'DUMP:' prefix in two messages
* initialise blocksperfile explicitly (not necessary, but everything
else in that section gets initialised, so be consistant :)
* display the ``pretty'' name of the dumped directory, so the user
knows if it's a subset or not
filesystem. This uses fts(3) to access the directory structure (and
not the raw device), so the standard access permissions are adhered
to (unlike dumping an entire filesystem, which just requires read
access to the raw disk device).
* Support SIGINFO status reporting.
* Remove now unused variables that previously stored the (e)uid.
* Be more informative in a couple of error messages.
