rG465fe46da510: arm64: Add netmap(4) to default kernel config
rGdf64d7c8c82d: arm64: Add netmap(4) to default kernel config
Summary

Allows the development, testing and deployment of netmap(4)-based code on arm64 without having to recompile the kernel. netmap(4) is already in the amd64 and powerpc64 default configs, so it does not seem unreasonable to also provide it on arm64 by default.

Note that netmap(4) is useful even on systems without NIC that fully support it.

Test Plan

Tested with releng/14.0 w/vtnet NIC in an arm64 vm (UTM on macOS) and a code that uses netmap(4) to send and receive packets; seems to work without a hitch.
