Make rc_configtest behave like rc_pre and rc_post; i.e. don't define a default function (each rc.d script is supposed to define its own if wanted). This way, we can filter out the "configtest" action depending on whether the function exists or not. Adapt documentation. tweak/ok kn@

Add a new action: "configtest", to check configuration syntax of the daemon. A few adjustments will be done in the next days (like disabling this action if there's no specific rc_configtest function defined). e.g. /etc/rc.d/sshd configtest rcctl configtest sshd idea from naddy@

Add logger(1) support for daemons that are logging to stdout/stderr (mostly from the go ecosystem). Properly handle failing daemon startup now that we have pipefail. To take advantage of this new feature, just add foo_logger=facility to the daemon rc.d(8) script or in rc.conf.local(8) or use rcctl: rcctl set foo logger daemon.info tweak for checking flags in rcctl(8) from martijn@ "this looks pretty good" deraadt@ ok sthen@

Add an ALRM timer to cope with 2 annoying issues in rc.d(8): - prevent a daemon from hanging the boot (typo in your flagsm e.g. httpd_flags=-d) - make sure we can get the status of a backgrounded daemon instead of always returning success Side effect of this is that we can kill a knob! rip rc_bg :-) Ports will need love, and a second commit is coming for that. The diff is small yet not trivial so I am committing early in the release process in one shot so it can easily be reverted if needed. I started working on this during g2k16 in Cambridge then finished it in Brisbane for a2k17 where robert@, beck@ and sthen@ agreed it was the correct way to go and I should move ahead with it post 6.1. If you see any regression, please talk to me!

Point out that daemon class, via login.conf, can be used to set more than just the process limits - show that, in particular, environment variables and scheduling priority can be set in this way. Discussed with ajacoutot, robert, schwarze, I went with wording suggested by schwarze@ which was much better than mine.

Instead of demonstrating the method to override rc.d variables with a (relatively uncommon) change of uid, demonstrate changing flags instead, as this is more common (and hoping that this reduces the chance of users editing the rc.d script directly which can cause problems at upgrade time).
