vimage(8) is a legacy CLI interface for managing jails associated with
network stack instances, which is provided for compatibility with
older applications.  This change brings it back to life in a followup
to the initial conversion of vimage to use the new jail(4)
userland-kernel API:

- when creating vimages via "vimage -c", by default turn on a few
options expected by legacy applications, such as allow operations on
raw sockets, FS mounts etc, and allow jail-related parameters to be
optionally configured.

- introduce the "-m" modifier which allows for configuring jail
parameters of existing vimages / vnet-jails.

- make "vimage name command ..." actually work.

- when reassigning ifnets to vnets using "vimage -i", attempt to rename
the ifnet as "ethXXX" on arrival in the target vnet.  Several legacy
applications are known to depend heavily on such behavior.

- vimage -l lists only jails associated with vnets.  The output is
sorted using vimage / jail names as keys.

- vimage -l by default searches only the current level in the jail
hierarchy.  Recursive listing can be requested via -r switch.

- vimage -l by default prints only jail names on each line, making
such output suitable for pipelining to other commands.  More verbose
output can be obtained via -v switch, and even more jail specific
information will be displayed if -j switch is turned on.

- there's no need to build vimage as statically linked, so update the
Makefile accordingly.

- update the vimage.8 man page.
