COMPAT_xx. When found, move the actual compat code into the compat

2. Using the alias mechanism, split compat (and perhaps compat_sysv)
into multiple version-specific modules. Note that in addition to
updating the module code, this would also require changes to
syscalls.master files to change the names of the modules associated
with module-provided syscalls.
+ Update: These are being done simultaneously, with compat code being
+ moved directly to a version-specific module. All of COMPAT_80 and
+ COMPAT_70, most of COMPAT_60, and much of COMPAT_50 are finished.
+ Need to decide how to handle the COMPAT_BSDPTY stuff.
