This reverts commit 8e593a1f143203cace2e14bd6629a8ebdf9b47dc. I was
totally wrong, so just revert and get on with it.

mixer: remove volume backwards compat, add % interpretation

The current situation is fairly confusing, where an integer is interpreted
as a percent until you slap a decimal on it and magically it becomes an
absolute value.

Let's have a flag day in 14.0 and remove this shim entirely. Setting with
percent can still be useful, so allow a trailing '%' to indicate as such.
As a side effect, we tighten down the format allowed in the volume a little
bit by ensuring there's no trailing garbage after the value once it's
separated into left and right components.

Chase mixer(8) command-line interface changes

FreeBSD 14.0 is going to ship with a new implementation of the mixer(8)
command. Unfortunately, in order to support new features like mute, the
command-line interface of the new implementation is not backwards
compatible.

Update all the remaining documentation and scripts in the src tree
to use the new syntax.

While here, document in usbhidaction.1 that the mute functionality is
now supported.

While faintly amusing the first time, this might just cause confusion
for folks, and in addition it's not the most useful of tips, so doesn't
add much.

Therefore it seems prudent to get rid of it.
