3cddb2a3e2 John Aycock's BSD copyrighted sequencer assembler and sequencer code. This
is identical to the older version, just the copyright has changed.  Many
thanks go to Dean Gehnert of the Linux camp who went the extra mile to make
this happen.

Other changes:

Update assembler man page to include the -v and -D options

Merge in Dean's latest changes to the assembler

Have the sequencer do a MSG_REJECT when the negotiated syncronous rate
is lower than the adapter supports.  This forces asyncronous mode which
is faster at these rates anyway.

This code will be moved shortly to the non-gpld portion of the tree.

0ef8c3017a John Aycock's aic7770 sequencer code and assembler. There is currently
a discussion going on about removing this code from the burden of the
GPL, but it won't happen before Beta, and this code should be tested
before release.

Supports 27/2842 class adaptec cards and is almost capable of supporting
aic7870 based adapters (294X series cards).  It does not support Wide
controllers or the second channel on Twin boards although I have work in
progress on getting both channels and running.

I have also added a few performance improvements to this version that give
us approximately a 25% boost over the original driver.  These patches have
been submitted to the author.
