moused,syscons: Avoid warning if system has no /dev/ttyv*

A VM had no virtual terminals and emitted a warning on boot
`eval: cannot open /dev/ttyv*: No such file or directory`.

Break the loop in this case to avoid the warning.

rc.d: add a service jails config to all base system services

This gives more permissions to services (e.g. network access to
services which require this) when they are started as an automatic
service jail.

The sshd patch is important for the sshd-related functionality as
described in the man-page in the service jails part.

The location of the added env vars is supposed to allow overriding them
in rc.conf, and to hard-disable the use of svcj for some parts where it
doesn't make sense or will not work.

Only a subset of all of the services are fully tested (I'm running this
since more than a year with various services started as service jails).
The untested parts should be most of the time ok, in some edge-cases
more permissions are needed inside the service jail.

rc: syscons: Add UEFI special case

Changing cursor, screenmap and setting blanktime doesn't work when booted
with vt(4) and UEFI so add a special case for those depending on machdep.bootmethods.
I have no way to test if this can work with vt(4) and bios boot so just in case
keep calling those for this.

https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-rc/2018-December/003899.html

Note that this script no longer reports if the module is already loaded,
but it could be argued this wasn't particularly useful information.

Move the rc framework out of sbin/init into libexec/rc.

The reasons for this are forward looking to pkgbase:
* /sbin/init is a special binary; try not to replace it with
every package update because an rc script was touched.
(a follow-up commit will make init its own package)
* having rc in its own place will allow more easy replacement
of the rc framework with alternatives, such as openrc.

The new naming scheme for keymap files for use with vt(4) introduced a
collision for "no" as a country code with "NO" meaning "do not load any
keymap" (which also has been the default value in etc/defaults/rc.conf
for a long time).

The result of this collision is, that "kbdcontrol -l no" will load the
Norwegian keymap, while "keymap=no" in rc.conf was interpreted as the
lower case spelling of "NO" meaning "no keyboard" (and "no.kbd" was not
loaded).

Fix this by matching only the upper-case spelling "NO" in rc.d/syscons
when deciding whether to load a keymap file.

This will lead to "no.kbd" being loaded, if the until now valid (but
non-default) spelling "no" was used in an individual rc.conf file to mean
"no keyboard". But all alternatives I could think of introduce a larger
violation of POLA ...

Add vt(4) support to the console initialisation script, specifically:

- Identify the console driver used and print syscons or vt as appropriate.

- If vt is used and a keymap could not be loaded, then try to replace the
keymap name configured in rc.conf based on a replacement list in this
script. Warn about the fact, that a syscons keyname is configured and
report the replacement used under vt.

- If no replacement keymap is found, no keymap is loaded and a warning
is displayed, which points at the conversion script and allows the
conversion of keymaps not part of the official distribution.

This patch has been sent to the -hackers list for review, but no comment
has been received, yet. It is tested to work under syscons and vt on my
system (on vt with either the syscons or vt keymap file name in rc.conf).

The code looks for all the loaded screensaver modules, tries to
kldunload them, and only loads the new one if kldstat's output shows
that there aren't any left. However, the regexp looking for modules
to unload was still searching according to the the old naming scheme,
