f66e7afa28 Add to defaults/rc.conf a new function source_rc_confs which rc
scripts may use to source safely overrides in ${rc_conf_files}
files.

This protects users who insist on the bad practice of copying
/etc/defaults/rc.conf to /etc/rc.conf from a recursive loop
that exhausts available file descriptors.

Several people have expressed interest in breaking this function
out into its own shell script.  Anyone who wants to embark on
such an undertaking would do well to study the attributed PR.

4f9b3f5f33 Cleanup diskless support in current, mostly aligning it to the one
in the 3.x branch. Also remove the dependency on /usr to find the
boot address/interface.

321704296f Apply a consistent style to most of the etc scripts. Particularly, use
case instead of test where appropriate, since case allows case is a sh
builtin and (as a side-effect) allows case-insensitivity.

Changes discussed on freebsd-hackers.

9c63624e6f Use /etc/defaults/rc.conf everywhere, falling back to /etc/rc.conf
as necessary (for half-assed upgrades).

e4715b9359 Revamp rc.diskless. Split into rc.diskless1 and rc.diskless2. provide
more opportunities for overriding.  Clean up /etc/rc ( remove conf_dir,
    remove startup mount special cases, remove other special cases )
