Currently, the installer uses pre-created 800KB FAT12 filesystems that
it dd's onto the ESP partition.
This changeset improves that by having the installer generate a FAT32
filesystem directly onto the ESP using newfs_msdos and then copying
loader.efi into /EFI/freebsd.
For live installs it then runs efibootmgr to add a FreeBSD boot entry
in the BIOS.

Use userboot.so from the test directory if possible, fall back to .OBJDIR.
This avoids a problem that we've had since userboot coexistence was added,
where userboot.so alone no longer exists in the .OBJDIR but is instead just
a link installed later.
This is purely to make it easier to tweak them locally; the machine I have
for testing takes forever to do 50,000 pw strengthening iterations, and
we're not testing the strength of geli's anti-pw-guessing logic here
(especially given that our test passphrase is "passphrase", except that
I tend to tweak that also, to 'x', because typing is hard).
Some day these should be settable as cmdline args. But then, some day this
whole script should probably get a rewrite. :)
Cope for the fact that laoder.efi, not being boot1, doesn't read
/boot.config by setting boot_serial and force the serial console.
Also add sysctl so we can display the boot method.
Provide a variable, do_boot1_efi, if you want to use boot1 for
testing. But since it's transient, it's just a variable and not
available on the command line.
This extends the test suite to generate images for every combination of:
amd64: mbr/gpt geli/nogeli ufs/zfs legacy/uefi/both
Except for mbr+geli, which is not currently possible.

128MiB still works for Legacy booting, however. Go ahead and do 256MiB
for all amd64 boxes, since the number of such boxes < 256MiB is
vanishingly small.
We want to use the versions of the bootcode we just built, rather than
ones from whatever happens to be in /boot on the test machine
These were incorrectly added by me in r334888
We require some --globals due to custom loader extensions in our
environment. Add everything required for this to tools/boot so that other
interested parties can get up and go with linting our scripts and not get a
bunch of false-positives.
Print a qemu line to a shell script to ease testing each image
Start to support multiple architectures (still very green)
Create /etc/rc that echos success and halts the system for better
automation (also include halt)
Create /etc/fstab on a per-boot type to test loader's passing root
to kernel.
This lets me run a test, connect to it with telnet and get either a
timeout, or a report of success.

interactive console rather than the video port. qemu has issues with X
on my mac at the moment and this is the easiest path forward.

boot images for x86. This will be enhanced to generate all the other
images (u-boot, powerpc CHRP, etc).
At the moment, it's only generating three of them. zfs+gpt+legacy
works with qemu:
qemu-system-x86_64 --drive file=${file},format=raw -serial telnet::4444,server
but the ufs ones still have issues I'm tracking down.
These images are the boot blocks, /boot/loader, a kernel, maybe a
couple of modules, /sbin/init, /bin/sh, /libexec/ld-elf.so, libc.so,
libedit and libncursesw. This is just enough to get to single user. At
the moment, these come from the host system, but should come from
OBJTOP.
At the moment, this requires root to build since the zfs tools require
it (and GELI will too when we add support for that).

this will be installed into /usr/sbin, but for now it's just used for
the boot loader regression script. It's still a bit green, and likely
will get edge cases wrong still. It's also x86 centric at the moment,
but will be enhanced shortly for u-boot, CHRP PowerPC and other
methods.

Transition to WITH/WITHOUT_LOADER_GELI to flag support or not of GELI
in the boot loaders. Add HAVE_GELI so components can flag they need
support (since it's too large to include everywhere). Add temporary
warnings for the old forms to ease transition.
Also, update test script to build without GELI on x86.

Rename LOADER_FIREWIRE_SUPPORT to MK_LOADER_FIREWIRE. Only build
libfirewire when this is "yes". Add note to updating. Fix build script
to build this for x86 so the option doesn't decay. sparc64 supports
ZFS, so also build it MK_ZFS=no.
Sponsored by: Netflix
To ensure that I don't break the MK_ZFS=no case (currently working),
add that to the build, at least for i386 and amd64. Also, out of an
abundance of caution, clean single threaded, and then build in a
separate make. Otherwise, I hit a race where we build before objdir
has been created, which breaks at the moment.
