        src/lib/libc/gen: Makefile.inc grab-version.sh sysctl.c

Log Message:
Add new user.* nodes to sysctl

This adds the nodes (and documentation for them):

        user.ostype = NetBSD
        user.osrevision = 1199000600
        user.osrelease = 11.99.6
        user.built = 2026-07-10 02:46:18 UTC

to the sysctl mib (the values shown there just what happened for a test build).
The first three are more or less identical to the kern.* mib variables of the
same names - the difference is that these reflect userland, or at least, libc
so do not alter just because a new updated kernel is booted without updating
the rest of the system.  The fourth gives either the date when libc was
built (as shown) or if the value contains a trailing "!" (after a space
after UTC) the value is the MKREPERO_TIMESTAMP for the build (keep building
with the same value and the date/time there won't alter).  The date/time
are always in UTC.

None of these (like all the other user.* mib variables) are writeable.

It would be nice to get this into -11, but I am not going to request a
pullup for a few days, to allow people to experiment a little.

Someone please check the fragment added to libc/gen/Makefile.inc
I'm sure there's a much better way that could be done.

No symbol added/deleted, or API/ABI changes to libc, no version bumps required.

XXX pullup -11
