>Description:
Per the rc(8) man page, startup scripts need to support the commands:
start, stop, restart, status, poll, and rcvar.

However /etc/rc actually assumes that all startup scripts also support
at least faststart and quietstart, and this is entirely undocumented.
One cannot reasonably assume that all local startup scripts, including those
for 3rd party software, will rely on run_rc_command, so we should make
sure that scripts supporting only the documented commands are
properly handled.
