man filesystems: move driver pages to section four

Filesystem manual pages describe drivers, not formats;
except for fs, which describes the structures of ffs/ufs,
not how to use it in the system.

Introduce the "ruleset=number" option for devfs(5) mounts.
Add support for updating the devfs mount (currently only changing the
ruleset number is supported).
Check mnt_optnew with vfs_filteropt(9).

This new option sets the specified ruleset number as the active ruleset
of the new devfs mount and applies all its rules at mount time. If the
specified ruleset doesn't exist, a new empty ruleset is created.

Markup fixes.

Remove reference to mount_devfs(8), since mount(8) no longer
invokes this mount_devfs when mounting devfs file systems.

Mechanically kill hard sentence breaks and double whitespaces.

Deal with unsafe tab characters.

Assorted markup, spelling, and grammar fixes.

Explicitly state that mknod(8) can be used to undelete entries under devfs.

Uniformly refer to a file system as "file system".
