4832a19173 Add a "comconsole_speed" loader variable that can be used to change
the serial console speed (i386 and amd64 only). If the previous
stage boot loader requested a serial console (RB_SERIAL or RB_MULTIPLE)
then the default speed is determined from the current serial port
speed. Otherwise it is set to 9600 or the value of BOOT_COMCONSOLE_SPEED
at compile time.

This makes it possible to set the serial port speed once in
/boot.config and the setting will propagate to boot2, loader and
the kernel serial console.

d3e1c2411e Fix hw.acpi.os_name by renaming it to hw.acpi.osname. The "_name" suffix
is reserved by the loader, and thus any tunable name with that suffix will
be silently discarded.

Document this in the header and man page so that other developers do not
develop so many bumps on the head after banging it against the wall.

d2290dd57e Add silly password feature. If people want to depend on a flawed

Document some code in support.4th that I was unable to understand
just by reading.
