4.1 Bsd terminal handler improvements

Here are two improvements to the terminal handler with 4.1Bsd Unix.
I am sending these out in the hope (albeit small) that they will
make it into 4.2 and future versions.

SYNOPSIS
     TIOCHPCL - clear hangup close bit

DESRCRIPTION
   Clears the hangup on last close bit.  As distributed to us, 4.1 Bsd has
an ioctl to set the hangup on last close bit, but none to clear it.

IMPLEMENTATION
   Mimic the TIOCHUPCL ioctl, only reset instead of set the bit.

--------------
SYNOPSIS
    TIOCDRAIN - wait for terminal output to drain

DESCRIPTION
   In 4.1 Bsd there is no way for a program to wait for all the output
to be sent to the terminal.  Games, editors and other programs which may
interact with the screen in a "real-time" fashion need this feature.
The best example is the Mitre/Rand screen editor which has a feature which
allows a user to scroll through a file and stop at any point by hitting a key.

(Note: the equivalent is present in USG Unix via TCSETW but the TIOCSETP ioctl
 clears the input buffers which is NOT wanted).

IMPLEMENTATION
   Copy over the drain routine from the already present routine wflushtty(),
but don't flush the input queues when done.
