8373917257 Rename the file used to specify the nextboot to make it clear that this 
is a loader configuration file and can be used for more than just a
kernel name.

1de372dcd4 Add a -k option to reboot to specify the kernel to boot next time 
around.  If the kernel boots successfully, the record of this kernel
is erased, it is intended to be a one-shot option for testing
kernels.

This could be improved by having the loader remove the record of
the next kernel to boot, it is currently removed in /etc/rc immediately
after disks are mounted r/w.

I'd like to MFC this before the 4.6 freeze unless there is violent
objection.

9662d32c73 Implement -m and -p loader(8) "boot" command options in boot2. 
(This is more useful for 4.x where boot blocks can still load
kernels, modulo the PR kern/17422.)

28703190c5 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.

c4d9468ea0 mdoc(7) police: 
Avoid using parenthesis enclosure macros (.Pq and .Po/.Pc) with plain text.
Not only this slows down the mdoc(7) processing significantly, but it also
has an undesired (in this case) effect of disabling hyphenation within the

85ae580ccb Reboot(8) normally waits 5 seconds after sending SIGTERMs to all 
processes and then sends SIGKILLs. If a lot of processes are swapped
out, this delay may not be long enough, so processes such as an X
server may be killed before they have had time to clean up properly.

Make this delay more dynamic by waiting up to 60 seconds for swap
page-in activity to end. While I'm here, ANSIfy and remove a
`register' specifier.
