6a9974a4d9 Don't display option 2 (to toggle ACPI on or off) on x86 machines if the
BIOS does not support ACPI.  The other options in the menu retain their
existing numbers, option 2 is simply blanked out (and '2' is ignored).

6c96352a06 Remove support for autoloading ACPI from the loader. Leave in the code to
detect ACPI and export info such as the location of the RSDP via hints as
that is still useful.

bf74de7eba If autoboot_delay is set to -1, boot immediately without checking for
a keypress to match the behavior of the loader.

c2e1d5d04c Remove the USB keyboard hack now that KBDMUX is enabled by default. Allow
it to be disabled if Safe Mode is selected.

e522e6e988 Fix a bunch of stack leaks. These were theoretically harmless, except that
they would leave enough elements on the stack that if you escaped to the
loader prompt and then typed 'setenv', it would pull in all of the leaked
junk and cause an exception in the environment.  There still seems to be
3 leaked elements, but they don't appear to be coming from this file.

923a1dc3d1 Add a loader menu option to set hint.atkbd.0.flags=0x1 which allows USB
keyboards to work if no PS/2 keyboard is attached.  The position in the
menu was chosen to avoid moving option 6 (loader prompt).  This should
be a no-op on non-i386/amd64 machines.

6d38a06c85 Disable the APIC when selecting the 'Safe Mode' option of the loader. This
will disable both APIC interrupt routing and SMP.

af2aaddd7a Don't start the beastie menu if the 'beastie_disable' variable is set to
'YES'.

If the user selects to escape to the loader prompt, set 'autoboot_delay'
to 'NO' so that the prompt timer doesn't run.

0480feef80 Man, I'm not on the ball. 4th does not need to escape '\' chars. This
should make our beloved friend look less like he has a massive head wound.

dfc36ded78 Add a new bootloader menu. Pull in screen.4th and frames.4th from the
examples directory to support it.  This is installed only on i386 for
now.  It will be enabled in a later commit.
