I still think that TRIM should be opt-in, at least for the first time.
Below is the BIO_GETATTR change integrated.

Now, both FS_TRIM should be set and device shall report the
GEOM::candelete attribute as true to have BIO_DELETE issued. geom_disk
and md(4) report GEOM::candelete. Also, I updated tunefs(8) manpage,
missed in the previous version.
