a simple version of bcopy() so we avoid picking up the overly-complex
implementation in libc (via libstand). This is not necessary on
-current, but RELENG_4 has apparently just exceeded the 15-sector
limit for boot1.

larger than 8k. We now use 4k buffers regardless of the filesystem
block size, so there is no longer a static limit.
Simply increasing the buffer size from 8k to 16k as done on the
i386 doesn't work on the alpha, probably because it causes us
to overshoot boot1's 48k runtime memory limit.

* Make it possible to type a filename to boot1 so that it is possible to
recover from fatally broken versions of /boot/loader.
* Make a start at a CD boot program (not yet functional).
* Fix a raft of warnings, printf and otherwise.
* Allocate the correct amount in mod_searchmodule to prevent an overflow.
* Fix the makefiles so they work outside my home directory (oops).
'three-stage' bootstrap.
There are a number of caveats with the code in its current state:
- The i386 bootstrap only supports booting from a floppy.
- The kernel and kld do not yet know how to deal with the extended
information and module summary passed in.
- PnP-based autodetection and demand loading of modules is not implemented.
- i386 ELF kernel loading is not ready yet.
- The i386 bootstrap is loaded via an ugly blockmap.
On the alpha, both net- and disk-booting (SRM console machines only) is
supported. No blockmaps are used by this code.
