This requires two sets of changes. Firstly, for non-FreeBSD, we do not
know where tools are in PATH (and it is likely that some are not in
system directories and have been built as bootstrap tools during the
build), so we should leave PATH alone and trust the user. Secondly,
makefs needs a master.passwd for building images from a METALOG file, so
pass the directory in the image tree to makefs's -N option in order to
pick up a valid FreeBSD master.passwd; this is unnecessary on FreeBSD
(except in the edge case of building an image that refers to users or
groups not present in the host's database, which is unlikely but
technically possible) but harmless so can be done unconditionally.

This requires a bunch of METALOG mangling to include the files we inject
into the tree. The mkisoimages.sh and make-memstick.sh scripts are now
called with the current directory inside the tree so that the relative
paths in the METALOG match up with the current directory. The scripts do
not require this when not using a METALOG, but for simplicity we always
do so. The Makefile mangles the real METALOG created from the install,
as those files are shared across all uses of the tree, but the shell
scripts create a temporary copy of the METALOG that they mangle as their
tree modifications are specific to that image. We also need to pass -D
to makefs to turn any duplicate METALOG entry errors into warnings, as
we have many (harmless) instances of those.
Whilst dvd1.iso should work, the !NOPKG code will need more work to
support this.
All media will also lack mergemaster and etcupdate trees, since more
work is needed to add -DNO_ROOT modes to them. Users of install media
built this way will have to manually bootstrap them.

We create a UFS root filesystem using makefs(8), and later pass it to
mkimg(1) when creating the final image. The correct partition type is
freebsd-ufs; the freebsd parition type is for partitions containing a
BSD disklabel.

Currently, the installer uses pre-created 800KB FAT12 filesystems that
it dd's onto the ESP partition.
This changeset improves that by having the installer generate a FAT32
filesystem directly onto the ESP using newfs_msdos and then copying
loader.efi into /EFI/freebsd.
For live installs it then runs efibootmgr to add a FreeBSD boot entry
in the BIOS.

There's not much practical difference as far as install media is
concerned but newfs creates UFSv2 by default and it is sensible to use
the contemporary UFS version.
I also intend to change makefs to create UFSv2 by default (to match
newfs) so we'll want make-memstick.sh to be explicit, rather than
relying on the host tool's default.

This Makefile relies on Makefile.fat providing the correct value for
BOOT1_MAXSIZE and BOOT1_OFFSET. Since BOOT1_OFFSET had no default value
here the build would already fail if Makefile.fat did not provide
correct values.

Also remove the now-redundant error handling that was only for makefs.
This script was run on an older FreeBSD host that lacked efi-on-mbr
support in makefs. A warning was emitted on the console (from makefs)
but the script continued running and exited with 0.
