Given the recent discussion on the usefulness of auto-unload, would it possibly make sense to enable/disable this via a new sysctl variable?

We could make kern.module.unload_delay default to 10 seconds (the current default); if the delay is ever set to a non-positive value, it would disable the auto-unload feature completely.
