for user copyinout down to 12, and keeping segments 13/14 for
kernel VA.
It would be nice to have more available, but segments lower than
this are reserved for either memory or 1:1 mapped device i/o,
and seg 15 is OpenFirmware ROM. Also, the effort to keep OpenFirmware
available for callbacks limits the use of VA-mapped segments.
Fortunately UMA_MD_SMALL_ALLOC takes away a lot of VM pressure.

- culled long-dead #define's
- segment register defs moved to sr.h
- NPMAPS moved to pmap.h
- KERNBASE moved to vmparam.h
- removed include of <machine/cpu.h> and fixed src files that
relied on this.
Modifying segment register code no longer causes gcc rebuilds :-)
boot sequence.
The new pmap.c is based on NetBSD's newer pmap.c (for the mpc6xx processors)
which is 70% faster than the older code that the original pmap.c was based
on. It has also been based on the framework established by jake's initial
sparc64 pmap.c.
There is no change to how far the kernel gets (it makes it to the mountroot
prompt in psim) but the new pmap code is a lot cleaner.
