    kldload(8): Warn when a module exists in current dir but not loaded
    
    When a bare filename is specified, kldload(8) only searches it in the
    paths defined by 'kern.module_path' kenv/sysctl.  When the same module
    exists in the current directory, it will not be loaded.  This can cause
    surprise and confusion.
    
    To not change the behavior as well as keep consistent with FreeBSD, emit
    a warning in this case.  The FreeBSD implementation looks unnecessarily
    complex, so I chose to do it in another way.
    
    In addition, improve the verbose message to also print the actual module
    path.
    
    Sync the man page with FreeBSD's.
