partitioning scheme.
Users often get confused and frustrated when trying to delete partition
table and getting ``Device busy'' error because they forgot (or did not
ever know that they have) to delete all its partitions first, and while
the manual page mentions this briefly, it does not stress it out enough.

Any geom class using g_metadata_store, as well as geom_virstor which
duplicated g_metadata_store internally, would dump sectorsize - mdsize bytes
of userspace memory following the metadata block stored. This is most or all
geom classes (gcache, gconcat, geli, gjournal, glabel, gmirror, gmultipath,
graid3, gshsec, gstripe, and geom_virstor).

Before this change it was impossible to set number of PKCS#5v2 iterations,
required to set passphrase, if it has two keys and never had any passphrase.
Due to present metadata format limitations there are still cases when number
of iterations can not be changed, but now it works in cases when it can.

gpart(8) has functionality to change the label of an GPT partition.
This functionality works like it should, however, after a label change
the /dev/gpt/ entries remain unchanged. glabel(8) status output remains
unchanged. The change only takes effect after a reboot.

This flag indicates that the user wishes to use the GELIBOOT feature to boot from a fully encrypted root file system.
Currently, GELIBOOT does not support key files, and in the future when it does, they will be loaded differently.
Due to the design of GELI, and the desire for secrecy, the GELI metadata does not know if key files are used or not, it just adds the key material (if any) to the HMAC before the optional passphrase, so there is no way to tell if a GELI partition requires key files or not.
Since the GELIBOOT code in boot2 and the loader does not support keys, they will now only attempt to attach if this flag is set. This will stop GELIBOOT from prompting for passwords to GELIs that it cannot decrypt, disrupting the boot process

GELI is used on a SSD or inside virtual machine, so that guest can tell
host that it is no longer using some of the storage.
Enabling BIO_DELETE passthru comes with a small security consequence - an
attacker can tell how much space is being really used on encrypted device and
has less data no analyse then. This is why the -T option can be given to the
init subcommand to turn off this behaviour and -t/T options for the configure
subcommand can be used to adjust this setting later.

This commit also includes a fix from Fabian Keil freebsd-listen at
fabiankeil.de for 'configure' on onetime providers which is not strictly
related, but is entangled in the same code, so would cause conflicts if
separated out.
Since METAMODE has been added, sys.mk loads bsd.mkopt.mk which ends load loading
bsd.own.mk which then defines SHLIBDIR before all the Makefile.inc everywhere.
This makes /lib being populated again.
