The change extends vmimage.subr to handle a new parameter, VMFS, which
should be equal to either "ufs" or "zfs". When it is set to ZFS, we use
makefs to create a bootable pool populated using the same dataset layout
as bsdinstall and "poudriere image" use. The pool can be grown using
the growfs rc.d script, just as in UFS images.
This will make it easy to provide VM and cloud images with ZFS as the
root filesystem. So far I did not do extensive testing of cloud images;
I merely verified that creation of ZFS-based AWS AMIs works and allows
me to create amd64 and arm64 EC2 instances with ZFS as the root
filesystem.

Currently the installer is only started on the primary ("high level")
console. For systems where this is the video console and serial consoles
aren't of interest, and headless systems with just a serial console,
this works just fine, but for systems where both video and serial
consoles are present and meaningful this requires the user to select the
right primary console in loader, with the poor user experience of the
system appearing to hang if they leave the wrong one selected. This
notably differs from our multi-user behaviour of spawning getty on every
console, where the only issue with selecting the wrong primary console
is a quieter boot process until the login prompt appears (or the system
crashes).
Instead, use the newly-added runconsoles helper to run the installer on
every console (except for ttyv*, where only ttyv0 will be used). For
interactive installations, any of the consoles can be used, though only
one should be used at a time as no effort is made to avoid multiple
installations running at the same time clobbering each other. If the
Live CD option is selected, the other installers (which should, if the
user is well-behaved, be sitting at the welcome screen) will be killed.
If an automated install is in use, the primary console will be used to
display its output, and the others will direct the user to the primary
console.

Traditionally, we've used /boot/msdos for the MBR mount point for the SD
images that we produced. For GPT and bsdinstall, we've used
/boot/efi. Migrate to using /boot/efi for MBR as well and add a
/boot/msdos -> /boot/efi symlink for compatibility (which may disappear
before 14.0, but will remain on the stable branches).
When we first created the arm images, there was no EFI booting and the
FAT partion on an MBR image was used to hold the firmware, uboot.bin,
SoC config files and ubldr. When we transitioned to uboot with EFI, we
put the loader files in the same partition. Later we standardized on
/boot/efi at about the same time we added GPT support to the RE produced
images. We left the MRB case as /boot/msdos for legacy reasons and since
it wasn't always EFI. Later, we dropped support of non-EFI booting on
the RE produced images, so the duality of /boot/msdos diminished even
more. Since so little secondary meaning remains, putting it all in
/boot/efi standardizes the location and reflects the RE images
better as using efi-only booting.
In addition, always label the msdosfs partion 'efi'. While a small
misnomer on some systems that store other files in the ESP, it was
requested in review for more consistency for similar reasons to the
mountpoint rename. There was no way to have an 'alias' or 'second label'
here, so this breaks compatibility. Since the images are self-contained,
this was judged to be an acceptable change.

This is in preparation for non-FreeBSD and -DNO_ROOT builds. On
non-FreeBSD there is no host etcupdate to use, and -DNO_ROOT will
require additional flags that may not be supported by the host's
etcupdate when building on FreeBSD. Moreover, there's no guarantee
anyway that the host's etcupdate is quite right for the current tree;
upgrading from source only requires that the host's is good enough for
-p which just manually copies master.passwd and group, the rest of the
upgrade is done post-installworld. For example, should a new set of
autogenerated files be added that etcupdate is taught about, the host
won't know about them and so the bootstrapped current tree will
incorrectly contain them, leading to spurious diffs on the installed
system.

Summary:
This allows installing packages that depend on kerberos libraries
without pulling in all the binaries. It also moves libgssapi to runtime
to allow installing kerbereos libraries without adding a dependancy on
the large utilities package. It makes sense to put libgssapi in runtime
rather than kerberos-lib since this is a plugin layer which is intended
to support any GSS-API mechanisms, not just kerberos.
A good example of a package which uses kerberos libraries without
needing the kerberos utilities is sshd. This uses the kerberos GSS-API
libraries to implement its GSSAPIAuthentication option.

in which 14-CURRENT seems perfectly happy to ignore the target image

The latest version of the ec2-scripts package includes a completely
rewritten "use EC2 ephemeral disks for swap space" script. Now that
we have something which works on recent versions of FreeBSD, turn it
on since it's a great way to use the ephemeral disks.
Note that the option for controlling this, ec2_ephemeral_swap_enable,
is not the same as the option (ec2_ephemeralswap_enable) used with the
previous ephemeral-swap script; this change was deliberate to avoid
astonishment for users who upgraded their ec2-scripts package and had
a setting left behind in rc.conf.
I assume the original reason for Subversion's inclusion was to checkout

This requires two sets of changes. Firstly, for non-FreeBSD, we do not
know where tools are in PATH (and it is likely that some are not in
system directories and have been built as bootstrap tools during the
build), so we should leave PATH alone and trust the user. Secondly,
makefs needs a master.passwd for building images from a METALOG file, so
pass the directory in the image tree to makefs's -N option in order to
pick up a valid FreeBSD master.passwd; this is unnecessary on FreeBSD
(except in the edge case of building an image that refers to users or
groups not present in the host's database, which is unlikely but
technically possible) but harmless so can be done unconditionally.

This requires a bunch of METALOG mangling to include the files we inject
into the tree. The mkisoimages.sh and make-memstick.sh scripts are now
called with the current directory inside the tree so that the relative
paths in the METALOG match up with the current directory. The scripts do
not require this when not using a METALOG, but for simplicity we always
do so. The Makefile mangles the real METALOG created from the install,
as those files are shared across all uses of the tree, but the shell
scripts create a temporary copy of the METALOG that they mangle as their
tree modifications are specific to that image. We also need to pass -D
to makefs to turn any duplicate METALOG entry errors into warnings, as
we have many (harmless) instances of those.
Whilst dvd1.iso should work, the !NOPKG code will need more work to
support this.
All media will also lack mergemaster and etcupdate trees, since more
work is needed to add -DNO_ROOT modes to them. Users of install media
built this way will have to manually bootstrap them.
