Introduce six new options from NetBSD:
* -M <metalog> Log metadata in mtree format. * -D <destdir> Log paths relative to <destdir>. * -h <hash> Log digest of type <hash>. * -T <tags> Specify which mtree tags to log. * -l <linkflag> Create hard or symbolic links (allows logging). * -U Install without root privileges (owner, group, mode, and flags can be logged via -M NOTE: In the interest of compatibility with NetBSD and because it is the obvious letter, the nearly useless -M option (disable mmap) has been repurposed.

+ The install(1) option -M has changed meaning and now takes an
+ argument that is a file or path to append logs to. In the
+ unlikely event that -M was the last option on the command line
+ and the command line contained at least two files and a target

+ option served little practical purpose in the last decade so it's
+ used expected to be extremely rare.

After switching to Clang as the default compiler some users of ZFS
on i386 systems started to experience stack overflow kernel panics.
