Log Message:
Note removal of quotactl(8) and addition of quotadump(8)/quotarestore(8)
for backup purposes. While here, also improve the earlier quota-related
entries.
At quota2 merge time [20110306]:
- main entry is for "ffs", not "kernel"
- add entry to note addition of repquota -x
- add entry to note addition of quotactl(8)
- add entry to note changes to quotactl(2)
- avoid explicitly saying to use repquota -x and quotactl(8) to migrate
as it's no longer quite accurate
At libquota addition time [20120201]:
- main entry is for "libquota", not "kernel"
- add entry to note that quotactl(2) is gone and __quotactl(2) is now
a private interface
- add entry to note that the repquota -x dump format changed (from xml
to tabular)
- continue to make no reference to the vfs-level changes as they aren't
user-facing
Prompted/suggested by apb@; ok by martin for releng.

- kernel: merge the bouyer-quota2 branch. This adds a new on-disk format
+ ffs: merge the bouyer-quota2 branch. This adds a new on-disk format
to store disk quota usage and limits, integrated with ffs
metadata. Usage is checked by fsck_ffs (no more quotacheck)
and is covered by the WAPBL journal. Enabled with kernel
option QUOTA2, turned on with tunefs(8) on a per-filesystem
basis. mount_mfs(8) can also turn quotas on.
- See repquota(8) and quotactl(8) for a way to migrate
- limits from QUOTA to QUOTA2.
