aacp is a passthrough driver for aac, but it seems that aac kernel
module has a feature provided by aacp; so it can be removed safely.
_KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING provides P1003.1B realtime extension.
However, in an installation phase, it seems that it helps a little
for us, so we can remove this option from a kernel for floppy installation.
I know _KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING option is defined in other architecture.
However, I don't touch them at this time; I can't test it.
Anyway here's result.

in a floppy image. There are more low-hanging fruit to be had here
if things fail to fit again.

stuff fit in primary floppy images. Specific drivers moved: RAID
support, tx Ethernet, and wi (wireless). Probably want to revisit
at least the last two drivers before release.

into the install kernel. Unfortunately pcn(4) also needs mii(4) so that
would also have to added to install kernel, which will bloat it up so that it
doesn't fit on the floppy any more. Turns out we grew a lnc(4) module since
I last looked. So handle it as a kld loadable module during install rather
than have it statically compiled into the kernel.
lnc(4) will attach to AMD PCnet/FAST NICs if pcn(4) does not attach.
I.e. pcn(4) gets first chance. There is a problem however in that pcn(4)
was moved out of the install kernel so that the module would be used.
This however causes bad installs if one has an AMD PCnet/FAST NIC.
release/${TARGET}/drivers.conf file which list drivers that have to
go into the third floppy.
Also shuffle i386/drivers.conf so that the floppies don't overflow
anymore. Anybody with real/better usage statistics is welcome to
shuffle it differently.

This change should/could be merged into other arch's release build
areas (PC98, Alpha), but since i cannot test a "make release" there, i
won't do this myself.

1) Use devfs to mount filesystems. If mounting devfs is fail,
fallback to old code.
2) When fscking filesystems, use 'fsck_ffs' explicitly. As a
result, we no longer need 'fsck' the wrapper program.

Actually src/release/i386/boot_crunch.conf rev 1.45 does this change,
but unfortunately there is no src/sbin/fsck_4.2bsd directory, but
src/sbin/fsck_ffs.
This commit replaces 'fsck_4.2bsd' to 'fsck_ffs', and add a link to
'fsck_4.2bsd' and 'fsck_ufs'. Note that 4-stable's fsck(8) have an
ability of fsck_ffs also, there is no need to MFC at least now.
Tested only for: i386 (but I believe this doesn't break for other archs)
