I guess I wasn't loud enough.  We already had the exact same feature
via lindev(4).  In fact, now it panics if we load both, i.e.,
"make_dev_credv: bad si_name (error=17, si_name=full)".  Please see
sys/dev/lindev/full.c.  Also, the manual page is still symlinked from
lindev.4.

% grep -n 'full\.4' share/man/man4/Makefile
822:MLINKS+=lindev.4 full.4

If we're really making it a standard feature, then lindev must be
removed (or at least disconnected from build), __FreeBSD_version must
be bumped, and a new UPDATING entry for the change is required.
