  Allow the user to suppress the rate-limited pty(4) warning.
  
  The pty(4) driver raises up to warnings when an old BSD-style PTY is
  created. The reason why I added this warning, was to make it easier to
  spot applications that allocate BSD-style PTY's, while they should just
  use openpty() or posix_openpt().
  
  Add a sysctl, which allows you to override the number of remaining
  messages, making it possible to suppress the warnings.
