Product: Base System

simple patch to sysrc for -i
There is no functional difference between -q and -i.
The -i flag is documented as:
Ignore unknown variables.
The -q flag is documented as:
Quiet. Disable verbose and hide certain errors. When combined
with ‘-L’ and one or more name arguments, provide only exit
status and no output.
The current behavior is observed:
$ sysrc unknown
sysrc: unknown variable 'unknown'
$ echo $?
1
$ sysrc -q unknown
$ echo $?
1
$ sysrc -i unknown
$ echo $?
1
When the following behavior is expected:
$ sysrc -i unknown
sysrc: unknown variable 'unknown'
$ echo $?
0
Combining with the -q flag
$ sysrc -q -i unknown
$ echo $?
0
The following patch:
- Makes -i exit code 0
- Makes -i not suppress output unless combined with -q
