2c6f04dc0a Introduce new API to work with disks from the loader's drivers.
It uses new API from the part.c to work with partition tables.

Update userboot's disk driver to use new API. Note that struct
loader_callbacks_v1 has changed.

a2953f767d MFV: Update zlib to 1.2.7.
(x86 assembler optimization disabled for now because it
requires the new .cfi_* directives that is not supported
by base system binutils).

46632c18bd Merge index() and strchr() together.
As I looked through the C library, I noticed the FreeBSD MIPS port has a
hand-written version of index(). This is nice, if it weren't for the
fact that most applications call strchr() instead.

Also, on the other architectures index() and strchr() are identical,
meaning we have two identical pieces of code in the C library and
statically linked applications.

Solve this by naming the actual file strchr.[cS] and let it use
__strong_reference()/STRONG_ALIAS() to provide the index() routine. Do
the same for rindex()/strrchr().

This seems to make the C libraries and static binaries slightly smaller,
but this reduction in size seems negligible.

7d7a4ae1a7 Fix r223695 to compile on architectures which don't use the MBR scheme; wrap
the MBR support in the common part of the loader in #ifdef's and enable it
only for userboot for now.

9777aa3f12 Add a version of the FreeBSD bootloader which can run in userland, packaged
as a shared library. This is intended to be used by BHyVe to load FreeBSD
kernels into new virtual machines.
