Correct several bugs in fsck_ffs(8) triggered by corrupted filesystems.

Description

Correct several bugs in fsck_ffs(8) triggered by corrupted filesystems.

If a directory entry has an illegal inode number (less than zero
or greater than the last inode in the filesystem) the entry is removed.
If a directory '.' or '..' entry had an illegal inode number they
were being removed. Since fsck_ffs knows what the correct value is
for these two entries fix them rather deleting them.

Add much more extensive cylinder group checks and use them to be
more careful about rebuilding a cylinder group.

Check for out-of-range block numbers before trying to free them.

When a directory is deleted also remove its cache entry created
in pass1 so that later passes do not try to operate on a deleted
directory.

Check for ctime(3) returning NULL before trying to use its return.

When freeing a directory inode, do not try to interpret it as a
directory.

Reserve space in the inostatlist to have room to allocate a
lost+found directory.

If an invalid block number is found past the end of an inode simply
remove it rather than clearing and removing the inode.

Modernize the inoinfo structure to use queue(3) LIST rather than a
handrolled linked list implementation.
