b92c2c907e Add comments describing the bootargs handoff between loader(8) and gptboot
or zfsboot, when loader(8) is the BTX loader.  No functional changes.

6562843997 Remove the 'mini libstand in libstand' that util.[ch] provided. These
weren't needed, and their existance interfered with things in subtle
ways. One of these subtle ways was that malloc could be different
based on what files were included when (even within the same .c file,
it turns out). Move to a single malloc implementation as well by
adding the calls to setheap() to gptboot.c and zfsboot.c. Once upon a
time, these boot loaders strove to not use libstand. However, with the
proliferation of features, that striving is too hard for too little
gain and lead to stupid mistakes.

This fixes the GELI-enabled (but not even using) boot environment. The
geli routines were calling libstand malloc but zfsboot.c and gptboot.c
were using the mini libstand malloc, so this failed when we tried to
probe for GELI partitions. Subtle changes in build order when moving
to self-contained stand build in r326593 toggled what it used from one
type to another due to odd nesting of the zfs implementation code that
differed subtly between zfsloader and zfsboot.
