We want to keep our root file system open to preserve bcache segment
between file accesses, thus reducing physical disk IO.

bootonce feature is temporary, one time boot, activated by
"bectl activate -t BE", "bectl activate -T BE" will reset the bootonce flag.
By default, the bootonce setting is reset on attempt to boot and the next
boot will use previously active BE.
By setting zfs_bootonce_activate="YES" in rc.conf, the bootonce BE will
be set permanently active.
bootonce dataset name is recorded in boot pool labels, bootenv area.
in case of nextboot, the nextboot_enable boolean variable is recorded in
freebsd:nvstore nvlist, also stored in boot pool label bootenv area.
On boot, the loader will process /boot/nextboot.conf if nextboot_enable
is "YES", and will set nextboot_enable to "NO", preventing /boot/nextboot.conf
processing on next boot.
bootonce and nextboot features are usable in both UEFI and BIOS boot.
To use bootonce/nextboot features, the boot loader needs to be updated on disk;
if loader.efi is stored on ESP, then ESP needs to be updated and
for BIOS boot, stage2 (zfsboot or gptzfsboot) needs to be updated
(gpart or other tools).
At this time, only lua loader is updated.

We should have nextboot feature implemented in libsa zfs code.
To get there, I have created zfs_nextboot() implementation based on
two sources, our current simple textual string based approach with added
structured boot label PAD structure from OpenZFS.
Secondly, all nvlist details are moved to separate source file and
restructured a bit. This is done to provide base support to add nvlist
add/update feature in followup updates.
And finally, the zfsboot/gptzfsboot disk access functions are swapped to use
libi386 and libsa.

we have crc32(const void *, size_t) in libsa. Unfortunately zlib has
crc32(long, const unigned char *, unsigned) and we have conflict.
Since we do build libsa with zlib, we can use zlib version instead.

LLD 10.0.0 changed the behavior of the -Ttext option, so that using
-Ttext=0x0 now causes linking of the loaders to fail with:
ld: error: output file too large: 18446744073707016908 bytes
I reported this in https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44715, and
initially reverted the upstream change in r357259 to work around it.
However, after some discussion with Fangrui Song in the upstream ticket,
I think we can classify this as an unfortunate interaction between using
-Ttext=0 in combination with --no-rosegment. (We added the latter
in r332090, because btxld does not correctly handle input with more
than 2 PT_LOAD segments.)
Fangrui suggested to use a linker script instead, and Warner was already
attempting this in r305353, but had to revert it due to "crypto-using
boot problems" (not sure what those were :).
This review updates the stand/i386/boot.ldscript to handle more
sections, inserts some symbols like _edata and such that we use in
libsa, and also discards any .interp section.
It uses ORG which is defined on the linker command line using
--defsym ORG=value to set the start of all the sections.

Port illumos change: https://www.illumos.org/issues/11667
Move lz4.c out of zfs tree to opensolaris/common/lz4, adjust it to be
usable from kernel/stand/userland builds, so we can use just one single
source. Add lz4.h to declare lz4_compress() and lz4_decompress().

Many components under stand/ had CLANG_NO_IAS added when Clang's
Integrated Assembler did not handle .codeNN directives. Clang gained
support quite some time ago, so we can build stand/ with IAS.
In some cases there were small differences in generated object output.
In the case of gptzfsboot however using GNU as or Clang IAS to assemble
gptldr.S resulted in identical final gptzfsboot binary output.

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.
With these changes, geli support will be compiled into all variations of
loader(8) on all arches because the default is WITH_LOADER_GELI.

Move the libzfs stuff into libsa. There's no need for it to be a
separate library. The separate library adds to the issues of build
ordering that we see from time to time. Move the filesystem support
into libsa, like all the other filesystem support rather than making
zfs the odd-duck out.
Discussed with: allanjude@
Reduce by 1 the number of crazy libraries we need in stand by moving
geli into libsa (where architecturally it belonged all along). This
just moves things around without any code changes.
* Make autoboot() a static function in stand/common/boot.c, so it does
not shadow local variables in gptboot.c and zfsboot.c.
* Remove -Winline from the Makefiles for gptboot, gptzfsboot and
zfsboot, as gcc will always fail to inline some functions, and there
is nothing we can do about it.
* For gcc <= 4.2.1, silence -Wuninitialized for isoboot, as it produces
a false positive warning.
* Remove deprecated and unnecessary -mcpu=i386 flag from stand/defs.mk,
as there is already a -march=i386 flag further in the file.
