Add a flag to wdogctl(8), -x, that activates a user-mode timer that
is NOT disarmed when wdogctl closes the watchdog device. The -x
mode protects against the case where the kernel kills wdogctl,
sshd, and other essential userland programs (due to memory exhaustion,
for example), lobotomizing a mission-critical NetBSD system and
necessitating an operator visit to reboot it.
