c080688399 release: Use full window size for installer over serial lines
When running over a serial line we end up defaulting to 80x24, which is
rather cramped for many dialog boxes and occupies very little screen
space for most modern terminals. Thus, run resizewin -z to set the
terminal size if not already known before starting the installer, just
as we do for csh and sh login shells already in their default dotfiles.

013713e765 Create /tmp/bsdinstall_etc even if we aren't starting the installer so that
dhclient can write resolv.conf when used from the live environment.

a36511c287 Move the installer's keymap solution introduced by SVN r259468. The new
location of /etc/rc.local on the install media is more appropriate as it
knows serial vs. non-serial and can also do the change earlier (so that
even the initial Install dialog can benefit from the change).

4ba25c5ab2 More automated install support: if a script exists at /etc/installerconfig,
point the installer there and then reboot without asking questions. This
design subject to future change.

c991a64747 - Set TERM to cons25w on pc98 because we still use old cons25w terminal
to show Japanese.
- Add cons25w to terminal lists.

dc8fd8f2b7 Per popular demand, if installing from a graphics terminal, run the
installer on a VTY with no kernel messages (VTY 2), show the installer
log in real time on VTY 3, and spawn a shell on VTY 4.

8cfdf36d27 Add additional release makefile for bsdinstall-based media, along with
support files. This does not change the default behavior of anything.

To make bsdinstall-based media, pre-build world and GENERIC, then run
the release target in Makefile.bsdinstall.
