Log:
  MFC r199458: Add pwait utility, which waits for any process to terminate.
  
  This is similar to the Solaris utility of the same name.
  
  Some use cases:
  * rc.subr's wait_for_pids
  * interactive use, e.g. to shut down the computer when some task is done
    even if the task is already running
