/boot.config or on the "boot:" prompt line via a "-S<speed>" flag,

Fixed desctiptions of some options:
...
- Document better what the -C option means.
- The -c option is currently a no-op.
- The -D and -h options do not allow switching between
single/dual console modes and internal/video consoles.
(This used to be true for the old biosdisk boot code,
but now they just force the multiple consoles mode and
serial console, respectively.)

Add new boot flag to i386 boot: -p.
...
This flag adds a pausing utility. When ran with -p, during the kernel
probing phase, the kernel will pause after each line of output.
This pausing can be ended with the '.' key, and is automatically
suspended when entering ddb.
This flag comes in handy at systems without a serial port that either hang
during booting or reser.
