Set keep=8 in the weekly cron job.
...
A default of keep=8 for weekly snapshot is more useful than keep=4,
which is no more protective than the default daily schedule.

Change objects to datasets in help and comments.

In the usage synopsis and program comments, change "objects" to
"datasets" for consistency with upstream ZFS terminology.

Fix the hourly-daily transposition in the Makefile.
...
The hourly cron job was installed to cron.daily, and the daily cron
job was installed to cron.hourly, which caused incorrect scheduling.

Split the cron file for anacron compatibilty.
...
Split the cron file so that the hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly
zfs automatic snapshots still happen even if the system is offline
temporarily during the scheduled event, such as during a reboot.
On Debian systems, if anacron is installed, then it is used to run
the /etc/cron.{hourly,daily,weekly,monthly} directories, but not
the /etc/cron.d directory. This means that /etc/cron.d jobs are not
run if the system is offline when crond would usually invoke them.

Implement the --event option for :auto-snap-desc.
...
Set the com.sun:auto-snap-desc property on each snapshot to an
arbitrary value. On Solaris, this property is set to the dash
character by default -- which is convention for NULL -- but it
can contain an FMRI status comment or other user data.

Rebase exit codes to above 127.
...
Most standard shell utilities return errors less than 128. Rebase the
exit codes of this script to reduce the liklihood of overlap.

Consistently quote literal strings.
...
Apply some syntax hygiene. Quoting everything is a safe habit because
unquoted things can have subtle side-effects.

Invert the --skip-scrub test.
...
The $opt_skip_scrub option was tested incorrectly, which caused
the --skip-scrub option to operate opposite intent.

The implicit return is "$?", which can be set non-zero by
an earlier command.

Expand the options variable in the cron part file.
...
Cron doesn't do variable substitution and zfs-auto-snapshot doesn't
load options from its environment.
