make it more obvious that this *is* a ring buffer being
handled, and make it more obvious when checking a pulse
in the next frame

i forked spkmodem-recv from coreboot, who forked it from
gnu grub. gnu grub's version has the full header, with
copyright declared as belonging to the fsf
coreboot made changes after forking it, and later replaced
the license declaration with an equivalent SPDX header, but
they also removed the FSF's copyright declaration, which by
itself does not void the declaration
anyway, i just feel better re-adding the full declaration.
make it so!

there's no point passing it as argument to a
function. it's used across more than one function,
so make it global

it's currently a build-time option
make it a runtime option instead, so that every
user can optionally make use of it, on all builds

thus, there's no need to handle flushing of stdout
whatsoever, and the code can be greatly simplified
ascii bits are still reset, when no input on stdin
is given

when spkmodem-recv doesn't receive anything (via stdout)
after a few frames, it's assumed that the console is dead
and the buffered output is flushed
this logic is assumed superfluous when -u is set

my style was: 2 tabs. bsd-style, for extending a line, is
4 spaces. this style has grown on me, so let's do it here

my style of C programming is this: always return errno
upon exit from the program, or from a thread.
handle errno in the calling/forking function.
returning errno at the end of main has this intention:
if an unhandled error occured, the program exits with
non-zero status.
a correctly written program should *never* return non-zero
at the end of main, and if it does, this indicates a bug
in the code (per my code style / philosophy).
so, warn the user with a message if this occurs. the
intention is that this message should never be printed.
do not use assert() for this. i don't believe in that.
such a test should always be present, for everyone.

This version of spkmodem uses err() to indicate an error,
and the value of errno is used as exit status at all times,
even when it is zero.
When calling err(), it is intended that errno always be
non-zero, so modify the code accordingly.

when calling fread(), errno may be set to EOVEFLOW if
the range being read will cause an integer overflow
if end-of-file is reached, errno may not be set. when
calling this function, you must check errno or check
feof() - ferror() should also be checked, so this check
is added immediately afterwards in the code
ferror() does not set errno, so ERR() is used to set
errno to ECANCELED as program exit status
further separate reading of frames into a new function

The utils that are pledged checked HAVE_PLEDGE which was
bogus. OpenBSD defines __OpenBSD__, which you can check
for in ifdef.
This change makes nvmutil and spkmodem-recv *actually*
use pledge, when the utils are compiled on OpenBSD.

It will only be used on OpenBSD. Other operating
systems will behave in the same way.
Pledge is feature specific to OpenBSD that
restricts system operations, for security:

printf outputs to stdout, which is line buffered
by default.
Adding a -u option to disable buffering.
Exit when a non-support flag is given, but adhere
to current behaviour when no flag is given.

They do not need to be initialised zero, because
global variables are always zero by default,
unless set differently by the programmer.
