11d9aa6707 Step 1 of eliminating the "games" distribution: Move binaries to /usr/bin;
update paths; and include everything in the "base" distribution.

The "games" distribution being optional made sense when there were more
games and we had small disks; but the "games-like" games were moved into
the ports tree a dozen years ago and the remaining "utility-like" games
occupy less than 0.001% of my laptop's small hard drive.  Meanwhile every
new user is confronted by the question "do you want games installed" when
they they try to install FreeBSD.

The next steps will be:

2. Removing punch card (bcd, ppt), phase-of-moon (pom), clock (grdc), and
caesar cipher (caesar, rot13) utilities.  I intend to keep fortune, factor,
morse, number, primes, and random, since there is evidence that those are
still being used.

3. Merging src/games into src/usr.bin.

This change will not be MFCed.

e42fc36867 Switch the default terminal emulation style to xterm for most platforms.
Right now syscons(4) uses a cons25-style terminal emulator. The
disadvantages of that are:

- Little compatibility with embedded devices with serial interfaces.
- Bad bandwidth efficiency, mainly because of the lack of scrolling
  regions.
- A very hard transition path to support for modern character sets like
  UTF-8.

Our terminal emulation library, libteken, has been supporting
xterm-style terminal emulation for months, so flip the switch and make
everyone use an xterm-style console driver.

I still have to enable this on i386. Right now pc98 and i386 share the
same /etc/ttys file. I'm not going to switch pc98, because it uses its
own Kanji-capable cons25 emulator.

IMPORTANT: What to do if things go wrong (i.e. graphical artifacts):

- Run the application inside script(1), try to reduce the problem and
  send me the log file.
- In the mean time, you can run `vidcontrol -T cons25' and `export
  TERM=cons25' so you can run applications the same way you did before.
  You can also build your kernel with `options TEKEN_CONS25' to make all
  virtual terminals use the cons25 emulator by default.

2c61a906a5 Remove X11R6 from the default PATH to join the new world order.
While I'm here, make the default PATH match that in the csh profile,
and login.conf.

618aa782be 1. Remove the hateful EDITOR=ee from root's environment; it's one
thing to use it at startup, when you don't know if the user can
   handle vi or not, but yet another thing to leave it as a permanent
   land mine for root.

2. Put /usr/X11R6/bin in path; it makes getting the desktop up a lot easier.

a90657fc2a Don't clobber the TERM variable if it's already set (e.g. from /etc/ttys,
or from a telnet session).  So basically, this setting will only get in
effect in the single-user shell.

Closes PR # 2395.

1130b656e5 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.

7b55c6d153 Rip these things down to the absolutely minimums - no tsets, no
sttys, no fancy prompts, nothing.  Everything else seems to be
too contraversal, so we'll go vanilla.

7d686f6cd2 Since we're using syscons now, make ^H the backspace character by
