sbin/dmesg: add -w option w/docs

This patch introduces an option -w for displaying the kernel messages,
repeatedly. When combined with the -c option, it tails kernel messages.

This is invaluable for environments where accessing the live console isn't
feasible; but watching the messages with as little overhead as possible is
desired.

Patch includes MAN page update too.
