- Introduce sme_class into the sysmon_envsys struct to specify a
class; currently there are two classes: SME_CLASS_ACADAPTER and
SME_CLASS_BATTERY.
- Add a new envsys event: PENVSYS_EVENT_LOW_POWER that is reached when
all SME_CLASS_BATTERY devices are in CRITICAL/LOW state and there's not
any SME_CLASS_ACADAPTER connected.
- Add the 'low-power' event into the sensor_battery script that will
shutdown the system gracefully via 'shutdown -p'. If powerd(8) is
not running, cpu_reboot(9) with RB_POWERDOWN is used.
- Make acpiacad(4) a SME_CLASS_ACADAPTER device and acpibat(4) a
SME_CLASS_BATTERY device.
Update the documentation accordingly to these changes.
(Part 4: documentation and configuration files)
* Support for detachable sensors.
* Cleaned up the API for simplicity and efficiency.
* Ability to send capacity/critical/warning events to powerd(8).
* Adapted all the code to the new locking order.
* Compatibility with the old envsys API: the ENVSYS_GTREINFO
and ENVSYS_GTREDATA ioctl(2)s are supported.
* Added support for a 'dictionary based communication channel' between
sysmon_power(9) and powerd(8), that means there is no 32 bytes event
size restriction anymore.
* Binary compatibility with old envstat(8) and powerd(8) via COMPAT_40.
* All drivers with the n^2 gtredata bug were fixed, PR kern/36226.

Add some etc/ subdir Makefiles where appropriate.
