Log:
   Remove the IPFIREWALL_FORWARD kernel option and make possible to turn
   on the related functionality in the runtime via the sysctl variable
   net.pfil.forward. It is turned off by default.

I still don't agree with naming the sysctl net.pfil.forward.  This
type of forwarding is a property of IPv4 and IPv6 and thus should
be put there.  Pfil hooking can be on layer 2, 2-bridging, 3 and
who knows where else in the future.  Forwarding works only for IPv46.

You haven't even replied to my comment on net@.  Please change the
sysctl location and name to its appropriate place.

Also an MFC's after 2 weeks must ensure that compiling with IPFIREWALL_
FORWARD enabled the sysctl at the same time to keep kernel configs
within 9-stable working.
