rc.d/watchdogd: a suggestion

I have a suggestion to start watchdogd a little bit earlier than it is done now,
and correspondingly to stop it a little bit later during shutdown:

@@ -28,7 +28,8 @@
 #

 # PROVIDE: watchdogd
-# REQUIRE: DAEMON cleanvar
+# REQUIRE: FILESYSTEMS syslogd cleanvar
+# BEFORE:  SERVERS
 # KEYWORD: nojail shutdown

 . /etc/rc.subr

Not sure if it really has to be after syslogd, but I decided to keep that for
POLA reasons (messages in logs).
What do you think?
