Introduce startmsg and use it in rc scripts
startmsg is a new rc.subr(8) function function to be used instead of
echo(1) when for boot messages. It replaces the often forgotten
check_startmsgs && echo ...
with
startmsg ...
No functional change intended.
I adjusted the commit message and did some final clean-ups of the patch
before committing.
