freebsd-update: Library ordering
Upgrading from 14.x to 15.x with freebsd-update broke because libc
depends on the new libsys library; freebsd-update installed the new
libc before creating libsys, and every step after that failed because
all the tools (including gunzip and install) are dynamically linked
and need a working libc.
Enforce ordering when installing shared objects: First libsys, then
libc, then libthr, and then all the rest of the shared object files.
This is a candidate for an Errata Notice since the issue this fixes
breaks upgrades.
