80a623bf52 loader.conf(5): document that loader_conf_files may be clobbered
A future change in lualoader may take some liberties with the
loader_conf_files in the name of efficiency; namely, it may start omitting
it from the loader environment entirely so that it doesn't need to worry
about maintaining any specific value.

This variable has historically been incredibly volatile anyways, as it may
get set to completely different values in any given configuration file to
trigger a load of more files.

Document now that we may not maintain it in the future, but perhaps we'll
reserve the right to change our minds and eventually formally export all of
the loader configuration files that were read using this variable.

532dc17243 lualoader: Create a module blacklist, add DRM modules to it
This is a step in the process of easing migration into the new world order
of DRM drivers. Strongly encourage users towards loading DRM modules via
rc.conf(5) instead of loader.conf(5) by failing the load from loader(8).
Users so inclined may wipe out the blacklist via module_blacklist="" in
loader.conf(5), and it is expected that these modules will eventually be
removed from the blacklist. They may still be loaded as dependencies of
other modules or explicitly via the loader prompt, but this should not be a
major problem.

dec08e67e4 loader.conf(5): Document some other settings
These tend to have less coverage in other places and they don't have
defaults as of yet, so mention them here:
- fdt_overlays
- kernels_autodetect (lualoader only)

b6955dfd92 Go back to one loader.conf
We really only need one loader.conf. The other loader.conf was created
because the current one took forever to parse in FORTH. That will be
fixed in the next commit.
