If we are booting in a conforming UEFI Boot Manager Environment, then
use the BootCurrent variable to find the BootXXXX we're using. Once we
find that, then if it contains more than one EFI_DEVICE_PATH in its
what to boot section, try to use the last one as the kernel to
load. This will also set the default root partition as well. If
there's only one path, or if there's an error along the way, assume
that nothing specific was specified and revert to the old
algorithm. If something was specified, but not found, then fail the
boot. Otherwise you that, specific thing. On FreeBSD, this can be set
using efibootmgr -l <loader> -k <kernel>. We try a few variations of
kernel to cope with the fact that UEFI comes from a DOS world where
paths might be upper case and/or contain back-slashes.
Note: In an ideal world, we'd work out where we are in chain loading
by looking at the passed-in image handle and doing name
matching. However, that's unreliable since at least boot1.efi booted
images don't have that, hence the assumption that loader.efi needs to
load the last thing on the list, if possible.
The reason we fail for something specific is so that we can fully
participate in the UEFI Boot Manager Protocol and fail over to the
next item in the list of BootOrder choices when something goes wrong
at this stage.

This moves the bulk of the geli support from lib386/biosdisk.c into a new
geli/gelidev.c which implements a devsw-type device whose dv_strategy()
function handles geli decryption. Support for all arches comes from moving
the taste-and-attach code to the devopen() function in libsa.
After opening any DEVT_DISK device, devopen() calls the new function
geli_probe_and_attach(), which will "attach" the geli code to the open_file
struct by creating a geli_devdesc instance to replace the disk_devdesc
instance in the open_file. That routes all IO for the device through the
geli code.
A new public geli_add_key() function is added, to allow arch/vendor-specific
code to add keys obtained from custom hardware or other sources.

This commit attempts to address that further in two ways:
- Instead of issuing CSI bg/fg resets (CSI 39m and CSI 49m respectively for
"default"), issue CSI bg/fg escape sequences for our expected color scheme
- Reset to *our* default color scheme before we even attempt to load the

"$x.y.z" to determine if the variable is $x, $x.y, or $x.y.z.

zfsloader(8) fails to probe a slice containing ZFS pool if its second sector
contains traces of BSD label (DISKMAGIC == 0x82564557).
Fix manual page to show working example erasing such traces.

It was previously only printed, but we do actually want to raise it as a
full blown error so that things don't look OK when they've actually gone
wrong.
The second parameter to error, level, is set to 2 here so that the error
message reflects the position of the try_include caller, rather than the
try_include itself. Example:
LUA ERROR: /boot/lua/loader.lua:46: /boot/lua/local.lua:1: attempt to call a
nil value (global 'cxcint').
This provides a way to optionally include a module without having to wrap it
in filesystem checks. try_include is a little more robust, using the lua
search path instead of forcing us to explicitly consider all of the places
we could want to include a module. Errors are still generally raised from
trying to load the module, but ENOENT will not get raised unless we're doing
a verbose load.
This will also be used to split out logo/brand graphics into their own files
so that we can safely scale up the number of graphics included without
worrying about the extra memory consumption- opting to lazily load graphics
instead.

UGA does not have the same kind of mode enumeration that GOP does. Implement
it instead as a call to text_autoresize so that firmwares with only UGA
present still get some kind of autoresizing behavior.
While here, rename a typo'd "gop" to "uga", although it will remain unused
for the time being.
This pertains exclusively to the set/restore functionality that we offer,
where any changes made by loader.conf previously will be effectively removed
upon reload of the configuration. We don't currently have a need to export
these, so don't bother.
Not all systems use efifb; pull hw.vga.textmode and choose a good console
mode instead if it's set to something non-zero. This is basically a revival
of the code that used to live in boot1, but instead rebased onto this
different way of doing mode selection in loader.efi.
Interestingly enough, the regression that was previously introduced where
GOP would not reflect the console setting does not seem to exist when
console mode selection is done here. I've not done any investigation as to
why this is the case. Nevertheless, boot1.efi is still not the best place to
do mode selection.
Default the max resolution to 1080p, we'll accept Width x Height
specifications along with the following presets:
- 480p
- 720p
- 1080p
- 2160p or 4k
- 5k

I thought I tested this scenario, but clearly I failed to. =(
BIOS boots won't have efi-autoresizecons, so trying to use it as a forth
word fails during include. Use evaluate on "efi-autoresizecons" as a string
instead to move any potential errors to runtime- safely after we've already
checked that we're booting UEFI.
