aff9c67b1f Perform a major cleanup of the usr.sbin Makefiles.
These are not perfectly in agreement with each other style-wise, but they
are orders of orders of magnitude more consistent style-wise than before.

81e7224513 Add diskcheck-daemon.
With a small disk being 20GB these days, chances are pretty good that
an ailing sector will not be read while still being recoverable by
the drive.

Diskcheck daemon will read disks in the background at a low rate and
that way give the diskdrive a chance to detect and correct soft read
errors before they become hard errors.
