Do not set canmount=noauto on the boot environment at create time, because
this causes / to not be mounted, and since the chroot is read only, new
mountpoints cannot be created.
The property is set later, when other properties are adjusted

In this configuration, a separate bootpool is not required.
This allows ZFS Boot Environments to be used with GELI encrypted ZFS pools.
Support for GPT+EFI+GELI is planned for the future.

The root file system is mounted early via vfs.root.mountfrom.
The canmount=noauto property only affects the zfs rc.d script.
This ensures that the 'default' BE is not mounted overtop of another BE when
one is selected from the beastie menu

The POSIX version of basename() doesn't use a 'const char *' argument;
the function may overwrite its input buffer. Instead of copying the
input string, let's just simplify this code by using our getprogname()
function that already returns the name of the application in the right
format.

Installs both pmbr+gptzfsboot as well as boot1.efifat in separate partitions
The resulting system can be booted with either UEFI or BIOS/CSM.
Preference is controlled by the user's firmware boot settings.
This is now the default for zfsboot installs

If the bootpool does not start at the first sector of the BSD partition
then zfsldr seeks to the wrong offset inside the ZFS vdev label, and is
unable to find zfsboot, so the system does not boot
If 4k alignment is requested, align the BSD partition in the MBR table,
and align the swap and data pool, but the bootpool must start at sector 1
While here, if 4k alignment is requested, disable MBR CHS alignment, as
this results in not-4k aligned partitions.

The Dell Precision Tower 5810 fails to boot from GPT in Legacy/BIOS mode
without the Active flag in the Protective MBR. Suggest the workaround
during installation.
Since an increasing number of Dell systems exhibit this behavior,
I imagine all Dells past a certain date will do so. I would like
to suggest the workaround for all Dells with a BIOS date of, say,
2014 or later, but I would need to test a variety of systems before
committing such a change.

- Rework MANIFEST generation and parsing via bsdinstall(8).
- Allow selecting debugging distribution sets during install.
- Rework bsdinstall(8) to fetch remote debug distribution sets
when they are not available on the local install medium.
- Allow selecting additional non-GENERIC kernels during install.
At present, GENERIC is still required, and installed by default.
