Some fixes:
- Maintain historical behavior more accurately w.r.t verbose_loading;
verbose_loading strictly prints "${module_name...}" and later "failed!"
or "ok" based on load success
- With or without verbose_loading, dump command_errbuf on load failure.
This usually happens prior to ok/failed if we're verbose_loading

This will be used for scenarios where the command to execute is coming in
via the environment (from, for example, loader.conf(5)) and is thus not
necessarily trusted.
cli_execute_unparsed will immediately be used for handling
module_{before,after,error} as well as menu_timeout_command. We still want
to offer these variables the ability to execute Lua-intercepted loader
commands, but we don't want them to be able to execute arbitrary Lua.

This allows lua to pass back a command string to be executed as if it were
typed at the loader prompt- loader tries to execute the string first as pure
lua, then parses it and gives lua a chance to intercept before it tries to
execute it itself.
This will be used to implement menu_timeout_command, among other things,
which *should* be used to execute basic loader commands independent of the
chosen interpreter.
printc does not need the features or the overhead of printf. It does not
take formatting strings, and it pipes the single string argument through an
"%s" format.
Instead, use putc directly. This pipes the string through in its entirety as
a series of 'unsigned char's, generally straight to the console emulator.

Write support (even if it only works on UFS) will be needed for nextboot

We need to ensure that we defined Numbers as int64_t everywhere we
build for lua. Previously, we were compiling part of the code with
Numbers as int64_t and part as double. Move lua number definition to a
more-central location
Provisioned from MACHINE/MACHINE_ARCH on the system, expose loader.machine
and loader.machine_arch respectively.
These may be used to hide ACPI option on non-applicable archs.

In the remaining error case, return a 3-tuple consistent with the other
error return case.
Document how to invoke lfs.attributes() and detect/decode error return in

liblua glues the lua run time into the boot loader. It implements all
the runtime routines that lua expects. In addition, it has a few
standard 'C' headers that nueter various aspects of the LUA build that
are too specific to lua to be in libsa. Many refinements from the
original code to improve implementation and the number of included lua
libraries. Use int64_t for lua_Number. Have "/boot/lua" be the default
module path. Numerous cleanups from the original GSoC project,
including hacking libsa to allow lua to be built with only one change
outside luaconf.h.
Add the final bit of lua glue to bring in liblua and plug into the
multiple interpreter framework, previously committed.
Add LOADER_LUA option, currently off by default.
Presently, this is an experimental option. One must opt-in to using
this by defining WITH_LOADER_LUA and WITHOUT_FORTH. It's been
lightly tested, so keep a backup copy of your old loader handy.
The menu code, coming in the next commit, hasn't been exhaustively
tested. A LUA boot loader is 60k larger than a FORTH one, which is
80k larger than a no-interpreter one. Subtle changes in size
may tip things past some subtle limit (the binary is ~430k now
when built with LUA). A future version may offer coexistance.
Bump FreeBSD version to 1200058 to mark the milestone.
