show arptab command of ddb is now inappropriate because it actually dumps
routes but arp entries aren't routes anymore. So rename it to show routes
and move the code from if_arp.c to route.c.

This does have an effect -- it nullifies the next pointer. (The text
was copied from PSLIST_DESTROY, which really has no effect without
options DIAGNOSTIC.)
Per the jargon file, `frotz' is a contraction of `frobnitz', which
pluralizes to `frobnitzem'; `frobbotzim' is the plural of the related
but not identical term `frobozz'.
Fixing other uses of this plural elsewhere among the man pages is
left to the reader inclined to humorous linguistic studies.
Discussed on tech-kern:

API is still experimental and likely to change. (Obvious changes:
either remove extra arguments everywhere, or shrink psref_target to a
single bit, at the expense of possibly valuable diagnostic checks.)
Should do some real testing before we use this in anger!
By this change, nexthop caches (IP-MAC address pair) are not stored
in the routing table anymore. Instead nexthop caches are stored in
each network interface; we already have lltable/llentry data structure
for this purpose. This change also obsoletes the concept of cloning/cloned
routes. Cloned routes no longer exist while cloning routes still exist
with renamed to connected routes.
Noticeable changes are:
- Nexthop caches aren't listed in route show/netstat -r
- sysctl(NET_RT_DUMP) doesn't return them
- If RTF_LLDATA is specified, it returns nexthop caches
- Several definitions of routing flags and messages are removed
- RTF_CLONING, RTF_XRESOLVE, RTF_LLINFO, RTF_CLONED and RTM_RESOLVE
- RTF_CONNECTED is added
- It has the same value of RTF_CLONING for backward compatibility
- route's -xresolve, -[no]cloned and -llinfo options are removed
- -[no]cloning remains because it seems there are users
- -[no]connected is introduced and recommended
to be used instead of -[no]cloning
- route show/netstat -r drops some flags
- 'L' and 'c' are not seen anymore
- 'C' now indicates a connected route
- Gateway value of a route of an interface address is now not
a L2 address but "link#N" like a connected (cloning) route
- Proxy ARP: "arp -s ... pub" doesn't create a route
You can know details of behavior changes by seeing diffs under tests/.
Proposed on tech-net and tech-kern:
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-net/2016/03/11/msg005701.html
for obscure corner cases like -pie -fPIE -static (used for
/usr/tests/lib/csu/h_initfini2 if building with MKPIE=yes).
While there also replace -fPIC with -fPIE for the PIE case, even if
it should be mostly equivalent.
