exportfs -d logs 9p traffic to /tmp/exportdb.
-f allows writing to a different file.
exportfs silently continues if it doesn't have
permissions to create or write to /tmp/exportdb.
These are poor behaviors.
A better default is to write to stderr, since it
is 9P debug info that is better immediately printed,
and not user info that is better handled by syslog().
As a result, -f is obsolete and thus removed.
Redirect responsibility is now on rc.
As a side effect, rc will fail if it doesn't
have permissions to write.
exportfs(4) is updated to reflect all changes
and with a better Synopsis.
oexportfs is changed to match exportfs.
oexportfs(4) is updated to reflect all changes.
The Synopsis is not changed due to the number of flags.
Removed -f from iostats.
iostats(4) is updated to reflect all changes.

Since we now store /dist/plan9front in git, the
initial assumption that the owner of the repo
is the person touching it is not always true.
This change gives us a better heuristic for the
file permissions we should have in the files we
copy around, basing it off of the permissions of
the .git directory.
The initial protocol handling in exportfs for
cpu and import services is a huge mess.
Saparate the code out into its own program with
its own oexportfs(4) manpage.
The new command marks the target window as a scratch window -- a window
whose state cannot be "dirtied" by changes made to its body, therefore
avoiding warnings about unsaved changes when deleting the window or
exiting acme.
Existing examples of scratch windows are error, directory, and guide
windows, whose scratchness is set internally.
With the new command users and programs alike can create their own
scratch windows. This is put to use in acme's own win(1).
with the -s flag, we should read 9P messages from
standard *INPUT* (fd 0) and write responses to
standard *OUTPUT* (fd 1).
before these servers where reading from fd 1,
assuming they where both the same files.
there isnt much of a point in keep maintaining separate
kernel configurations for terminal and cpu kernels as
the role can be switched with service=cpu boot parameter.
to make stuff cosistent, we will just have one "pc" kernel
and one "pc64" kernel configuration now.
