42c916d7ee Add a new gptboot(8) man page. Factor out the redundant information
in gpart(8) and boot(8), adding references to gptboot(8) in both.

0e52eb5ac5 Clarify that overriding the -h/-D flags through flags in device.hints

b7fa166b60 Add -e to set arbitrary kernel environment variables.
Nextboot(8) can now set any combination of kernel name (-k), kernel
options (-o), and environment strings (-e).  As a result of this change
-k also becomes optional.

14c69f2136 Let init(8) and reboot(8) use utmpx to log wtmp entries.
logwtmp() gets called with the raw strings that are written to disk. For
regular user entries, this isn't too bad, but when booting/shutting
down, the contents get rather cryptic.

Just call the standardized pututxline().

08b9134350 Replace "/etc/make.conf" with references to make.conf(5)
where applicable.  The main reason for this change is that
the location of make.conf is not constant and can be
modified via __MAKE_CONF.  This change also improves

a00a259113 Add the ability to specify the boot2 serial console speed in
/boot.config or on the "boot:" prompt line via a "-S<speed>" flag,
e.g. "-h -S19200". This adds about 50 bytes to the size of boot2
and required a few other small changes to limit the size impact.
This changes only affects boot2; there are further loader changes
to follow.

faa0ecdd5d The kernel specified in main() of reboot(8) will be initialized
with -k option and never be used without kflag.  This confuses
gcc because we set "kflag" at the same time with "kernel", but
the logic is not that apparant for gcc.

Since we can initialize "kernel" to NULL then know if "k" option
is set through determining whether it is still NULL, don't try
to have gcc to guess why we are connecting "kflag" with "kernel"
and use "kernel" directly in place of kflag.

- 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.)

6ab0d6c220 When kill(-1) returns ESRCH, it could be because the current process
doesn't have a process group, which can occur if you're working with
a custom init that doesn't set up a full tty context.  Rather than
refusing to reboot, ignore ESRCH from the kill attempt in reboot(8).
