Bug #2868: tmpfs problems: incorrect size, no auto-size

----------------------------------------
tmpfs version in DragonFly is limited  when comparing to FreeBSD:

1. When tmpfs is mounted automatically it's size by default (per man page) should be equal to all free mem + all free swap. Instead tmpfs filesystems are created with a fairly small size - like 200k on host with 1G mem.
2. tmpfs size should be auto adjusted when other processes are eating mem or when swap is added. Instead as swap is initialized after mounting /tmp swap addition doesn't make tmpfs grow. On the other hand I never saw tmpfs shrinking when all available memory is used.
