bootonce feature is temporary, one time boot, activated by
"bectl activate -t BE", "bectl activate -T BE" will reset the bootonce flag.
By default, the bootonce setting is reset on attempt to boot and the next
boot will use previously active BE.
By setting zfs_bootonce_activate="YES" in rc.conf, the bootonce BE will
be set permanently active.
bootonce dataset name is recorded in boot pool labels, bootenv area.
in case of nextboot, the nextboot_enable boolean variable is recorded in
freebsd:nvstore nvlist, also stored in boot pool label bootenv area.
On boot, the loader will process /boot/nextboot.conf if nextboot_enable
is "YES", and will set nextboot_enable to "NO", preventing /boot/nextboot.conf
processing on next boot.
bootonce and nextboot features are usable in both UEFI and BIOS boot.
To use bootonce/nextboot features, the boot loader needs to be updated on disk;
if loader.efi is stored on ESP, then ESP needs to be updated and
for BIOS boot, stage2 (zfsboot or gptzfsboot) needs to be updated
(gpart or other tools).
At this time, only lua loader is updated.

We need a valid st_dev, st_ino and st_mtime
to correctly track which files have been verified
and to update our notion of time.
ve_utc_set(): ignore utc if it would jump our current time
by more than VE_UTC_MAX_JUMP (20 years).
Allow testing of install command via userboot.
Need to fix its stat implementation too.
bhyveload also needs stat fixed - due to change to userboot.h
Call ve_error_get() from vectx_close() when hash is wrong.
Track the names of files we have hashed into pcr
For the purposes of measured boot, it is important
to be able to reproduce the hash reflected in
loader.ve.pcr
so loader.ve.hashed provides a list of names in the order they
were added.

The switch to lualoader creates a problem with userboot: the host is
inclined to build userboot with Lua, but the host userboot's interpreter
must match what's available on the guest. For almost all FreeBSD guests in
the wild, Lua is not yet available and a Lua-based userboot will fail.
This revision updates userboot protocol to version 5, which adds a
swap_interpreter callback to request a different interpreter, and tries to
determine the proper interpreter to be used based on how the guest
/boot/loader is compiled. This is still a bit of a guess, but it's likely
the best possible guess we can make in order to get it right. The
interpreter is now embedded in the resulting executable, so we can open
/boot/loader on the guest and hunt that down to derive the interpreter it
was built with.
Using -l with bhyveload will not allow an intepreter swap, even if the
loader specified happens to be a userboot with the wrong interpreter. We'll
simply complain about the mismatch and bail out.
For legacy guests without the interpreter marker, we assume they're 4th.
For new guests with the interpreter marker, we'll read it and swap over
to the proper interpreter if it doesn't match what the userboot we're using
was compiled with.
Both flavors of userboot are installed by default, userboot_4th.so and
userboot_lua.so. This fixes the build WITHOUT_FORTH as a coincidence, which
was broken by userboot being forced to 4th.
