- Move display node out of "axi" node
+ Cleanup syntax, slim-down code, and make things more readable
+ Introduce new +c! operator and ilk to reduce heap usage/allocations
+ Add safemode_enabled? safemode_enable and safemode_disable functions

The sole purpose of this change is to make sure that sizeof produces
"canonical" sizes for these structures. This is to avoid triggering
bugs in the BIOSes that properly handle only the canonical values of
input length provided to INT 13h AH=48h.
The canonical sizes are: 30 for v2, 66 for v3, etc.
Buggy BIOS code probably looks like:
if (input_length > 30) { /* > v2 */
assume that input length is 66 /* assume v3 or later */
}
This should fix boot problems at least on Supermicro X8DT6 and possibly
on P410i Smart Array Controller (as found in e.g. HP DL360 G7).

"boot verbose", "single user mode", "ACPI" and more are now stateful boolean

A short-coming in this new menu system is that when a user sets a non-default
value in loader.conf(5), this non-default state is not reflected in the menu
-- leading to confusion as to whether the option was taking effect or not.
This patch adds dynamic menuitem constructors _and_ the necessary Forth
callbacks to initialize these stateful menuitems -- causing the aforementioned
menuitems to adhere to loader.conf(5) settings.

executed to better differentiate between loader-specific errors and kernel-
specific errors (if ever any of either).
This type of functionality hasn't been required before the introduction of the
advanced menu system (r222417). Adding this functionality will help different-
iate errors at the loader-level such as a BTX halt caused by heap exhaustion
and errors that may be involved with executing the kernel (wrong architecture
for example). A user can learn that messages before "Booting..." are related to
the loader(8) environment and it's Forth-ilk, while those after are not
related to loader(8) -- the point that loader(8) has ``left the building''.
This patch also includes a man-page update to color.4th(8) as the color logic
moves to a lower-level (from being included by beastie.4th to being included
by loader.4th).
After noticing a delay between execution of the overloaded "boot" FICL word and
the display of text on-screen, gcooper confirmed that the introduction of a
builtin memory test (disabled by adding hw.memtest.tests="0" to loader.conf(5))
was the cause of the delay.
This patch adds an echo to produce "Booting..." when the overloaded "boot" word
is executed (this includes from the interactive command-prompt on all arches,
from the menu system on arches that run the beastie menu, and even those arches
that run the menu but disable it by setting beastie_disable="YES" in
loader.conf(5)). When loader_color="YES" in loader.conf(5), the same message is
produced but in white text on a blue background (only the letters produced have
this background -- opposed to perhaps the entire line).

disk_open(). Very often this is called several times for one file.
This leads to reading partition table metadata for each call. To
reduce the number of disk I/O we have a simple block cache, but it
is very dumb and more than half of I/O operations related to reading
metadata, misses this cache.
Introduce new cache layer to resolve this problem. It is independent
and doesn't need initialization like bcache, and will work by default
for all loaders which use the new DISK API. A successful disk_open()
call to each new disk or partition produces new entry in the cache.
Even more, when disk was already open, now opening of any nested
partitions does not require reading top level partition table.
So, if without this cache, partition table metadata was read around
20-50 times during boot, now it reads only once. This affects the booting
from GPT and MBR from the UFS.

The generic ELF loading code maps the kernel into low memory
by subtracting KERN_BASE. So the copyin/copyout/readin functions
are always called with low addresses. This code finds the largest
DRAM block from the U-Boot memory map and adds that base to
the addresses.
In particular, this fixes ubldr on AM3358, which has DRAM
mapped to 0x80000000 at power-on.
The NAND Flash environment consists of several distinct components:
- NAND framework (drivers harness for NAND controllers and NAND chips)
- NAND simulator (NANDsim)
- NAND file system (NAND FS)
- Companion tools and utilities

The code previously assumed that copyin/copyout did no
address translation and that the device tree blob could
be manipulated in-place (with only a few adjustments for
the ELF loader offset). This isn't possible on all platforms,
so the revised code uses copyout() to copy the device tree
blob into a heap-allocated buffer and then updates the
device tree with copyout(). This isn't ideal, since it
bloats the loader memory usage, but seems the only feasible
approach (short of rewriting all of the fdt manipulation
routines).
This is to silence warnings that result from different definitions of
uint64_t on different architectures, specifically i386 and sparc64.

In zfs loader zfs device name format now is "zfs:pool/fs",
fully qualified file path is "zfs:pool/fs:/path/to/file"
loader allows accessing files from various pools and filesystems as well
as changing currdev to a different pool/filesystem.
zfsboot accepts kernel/loader name in a format pool:fs:path/to/file or,
as before, pool:path/to/file; in the latter case a default filesystem
is used (pool root or bootfs). zfsboot passes guids of the selected
pool and dataset to zfsloader to be used as its defaults.
zfs support should be architecture independent and is provided
in a separate library, but architectures wishing to use this zfs support
still have to provide some glue code and their devdesc should be
compatible with zfs_devdesc.
arch_zfs_probe method is used to discover all disk devices that may
be part of ZFS pool(s).
libi386 unconditionally includes zfs support, but some zfs-specific
functions are stubbed out as weak symbols. The strong definitions
are provided in libzfsboot.
This change mean that the size of i386_devspec becomes larger
to match zfs_devspec.
Backward-compatibility shims are provided for recently added sparc64
zfs boot support. Currently that architecture still works the old
way and does not support the new features.
