For a long, long time, I have been defaulting rc.d scripts to
share/examples/rc.d/.

I plan on committing this within a couple days. (I also have some patches
for other packages that reference ${RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR}.)

Basically this does two things:

 RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR default is share/examples/rc.d.

 Makes its so it is in the PREFIX hierarchy instead of outside.

By the way, /usr/pkg/etc/rc.d/ (as it is now) doesn't make sense to be the
"examples directory". Others have already said this, so I plan to fix.
