ac63841b82 Implement seekability for disk devices (not just regular files).
Also, fix pos_out() to do the same checks pos_in() did.

Done for:	jdp, luigi, the good of the world

788bc0cf60 This is the second round of dd(1) changes. Some changes made/reversed by
request of Bruce. More changes may follow later. 'g' multiplier has
been added (i.e. dd seek=5g if=bigfile.) Some minor corrections were made
as well.

90290405cf Miscellaneous dd(1) changes: mainly fixing variable types (size_t, ssize_t,
off_t, int, u_int64_t, etc.). dd(1) should now work properly with REALLY
big amounts of data.

4841b45bbe Teach dd(1) about an option to write sparse files. Can be useful for
things like diskless clients' swap files etc.

808a36ef65 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.

6c0fd53b32 Bruce says: "You have been programming in the kernel for too long :-)."
and he's right ... I forgot about this floating point stuff you can
use in user-land :-)

Increase precision of duration to microseconds.
No heuristics to avoid overflow in calculation needed - just depend
on DBL_MAX being a bit larger than LONG_MAX.

Use double instead of `struct timeval' in dd.h so that everything
doesn't have to include <sys/time.h>.

Fixed style bugs in recent and old FreeBSD changes.
