        src/usr.sbin/envstat: Makefile envstat.8 envstat.c
        src/usr.sbin/powerd: Makefile powerd.8 powerd.c

Log Message:
Imported envsys 2, a brief description of the new features:
(Part 3: userland)

* Support for detachable sensors.
* Cleaned up the API for simplicity and efficiency.
* Ability to send capacity/critical/warning events to powerd(8).
* Adapted all the code to the new locking order.
* Compatibility with the old envsys API: the ENVSYS_GTREINFO
  and ENVSYS_GTREDATA ioctl(2)s are supported.
* Added support for a 'dictionary based communication channel' between
  sysmon_power(9) and powerd(8), that means there is no 32 bytes event
  size restriction anymore.
* Binary compatibility with old envstat(8) and powerd(8) via COMPAT_40.
* All drivers with the n^2 gtredata bug were fixed, PR kern/36226.
