Log:
  MFC r248068 (by sbruno):
  Add legacy support to geom raid to create a /dev/arX device for support
  of upgrading older machines using ataraid(4) to newer releases.
  
  This optional parameter is controlled via kern.geom.raid.legacy_aliases
  and will create a /dev/ar0 device that will point at /dev/raid/r0 for
  example.
  
  Tested on Dell SC 1425 DDF-1 format software raid controllers installing from
  stable/7 and upgrading to stable/9 without having to adjust /etc/fstab
