Use the efi's bi_copyenv to md_copyenv and place it in modinfo.c. Remove
all other nearly identical and efi's has the best error handling.

Since archsw.arch_copyin is always i386_copyin, this will be a nop in
terms of functionality. This is a diff reduction against other copies of
the code that differ only by what copyin routine they call.

Store whether or not we found a vbefb module (eg, a tg supported kernel)
in the preloaded_file structure. This automatically resets on reload and
eliminates load_elf knowing about any gfx_* interface. Restrict this to
i386, which is the only place it's used. Update libi386 to check in the
preloaded_file struct. Eliminate this from the teken_gfx
structure. Rewrite the parsing code to be more inline. Check this from
the same place we check for a relocatable amd64 kernel.

Draw console on efi.
Add vbe framebuffer for BIOS loader (vbe off, vbe on, vbe list,
vbe set xxx).
autoload font (/boot/fonts) based on resolution and font size.
Add command loadfont (set font by file) and
variable screen.font (set font by size). Pass loaded font to kernel.
Export variables:
screen.height
screen.width
screen.depth
Add gfx primitives to draw the screen and put png image on the screen.
Rework menu draw to iterate list of consoles to enamble device specific
output.
Probably something else I forgot...

e.g. boot_mute, boot_single, boot_verbose, and friends; we checked for these
in multiple places, consolidate into common/ and allow a setting of "NO" for
any of these to turn them off. This allows systems with multiple
loader.conf(5) or loader.conf(5) overlay systems to easily turn off
variables in later processed files by setting it to NO.
