Set use_nvd=0 in EC2 AMIs.

FreeBSD is in the process of switching from nvd(4) to nda(4) as the disk
device front-end to NVMe. Changing the default in the kernel is tricky
since existing systems may have /dev/nvd* hard-coded e.g. in /etc/fstab;
however, there's no reason to not change the default in HEAD for *new*
systems.

At present I have no intention of MFCing this to stable branches, since
someone might reasonably expect scripts they use for launching and
configuring FreeBSD 12.1 instances to work with FreeBSD 12.2 AMIs, for
example.

Relnotes:	NVMe disks in EC2 instances launched from 13.0 and later
		now show up as nda(4) devices.
