Summary

Add NVMe Get Features / Set Features support to camcontrol(8):

camcontrol nvfeature ndaX -a <get|set> -f feature [-d data]
    [-s num] [-U]

Currently, only the hostid feature is fully implemented. The
hostid value for set is specified with -d as a UUID or an integer
in decimal, hex, or octal, and -U outputs the hostid as a UUID on
get.

The -s argument exposes the feature select / save fields from the
NVMe specification. If bit 4 of the Optional NVM Command Support
(ONCS) field of the Identify Controller data is set, each feature
has a default, saved and current value, plus a capabilities mask:

For get, -s selects which to display: 0 (current), 1 (default), 2 (saved) or 3 (capabilities).
For set, -s is the save flag; a value of 1 sets the saved value as well as the current value, so the feature persists across an NVMe reset. Setting the save flag only works if the feature's capability mask includes saveable.

sbin/camcontrol/nvfeature.c:

New file, the camcontrol(8) nvfeature subcommand for getting
and setting NVMe features.

sbin/camcontrol/camcontrol.c:

Add the nvfeature subcommand.

sbin/camcontrol/camcontrol.8
421	same comment about nv prefix as before. Why not just feature.
3029	a spot check shows these are all in the tables below. How are they not implemented?
sbin/camcontrol/nvfeature.c
228	This is weird and likely deserves a comment.

Adapt to the wire-byte-order hostid convention from D59531: drop the pre-print byte swapping (which also fixes a bug where the 8-byte hostid was truncated through a uint8_t on big-endian), decode the UUID display with uuid_dec_be() to match the uuid_enc_be() used on set, and use le64enc() to build the 8-byte set payload.
