Consistently reference file descriptors as "fd". 55 other manpages

used "fd", while these used "d" and "filedes".

The sys/uio.h header is needed only for readv(2), preadv(2), writev(2) and

pwritev(2). Document it more precisely.

- Add two new system calls: preadv() and pwritev() which are like readv()

2005-07-07T18:17:55+00:00

  and writev() except that they take an additional offset argument and do
  not change the current file position.  In SAT speak:
  preadv:readv::pread:read and pwritev:writev::pwrite:write.
- Try to reduce code duplication some by merging most of the old
  kern_foov() and dofilefoo() functions into new dofilefoo() functions
  that are called by kern_foov() and kern_pfoov().  The non-v functions
  now all generate a simple uio on the stack from the passed in arguments
  and then call kern_foov().  For example, read() now just builds a uio and
  calls kern_readv() and pwrite() just builds a uio and calls kern_pwritev().
