new service command

[Doug Barton]

Howdy,

The idea for a 'service' command was proposed on this list a long time
ago (sorry, I don't remember by who), and at the time I was not
supportive. However I decided to actually give it a try, and found
that IMO it is actually quite useful. So, I've committed my version of
the concept to HEAD.

Take a look, give it a try, etc. etc. Comments and feedback are
welcome. I'd like to get this MFC'ed prior to the 7.3 freeze unless
there is some kind of objection.


Enjoy,

Doug

Log:
  The service command is an easy interface to the rc.d system.
  Its primary purpose is to start and stop services provided by
  the rc.d scripts, however it can also be used to list the scripts
  using various criteria.
