The Mac OSX implementation of the Serviceability Agent and related code is quite different from what's needed from the BSD implementation. Still we have tried to keep the coexisting in one codebase in the out-of-tree BSD port, as that's where the OSX code has been living.

This sometimes cause problems when updates to the Mac OSX port breaks the BSD implementation.

As we are working on getting the BSD port into a state for future upstreaming to the mainline repo, this patch clears the path by moving the Mac OSX implementation of the Servicability Agent to a more fitting namespace.

This should allow us to proceed with the BSD implementation undisturbed, but also without risking breaking the OSX port.

This work was sponsored by The FreeBSD Foundation
