Poul-Henning Kamp 3bd6561289 NB: This commit does *NOT* make GEOM the default in FreeBSD
NB: But it will enable it in all kernels not having options "NO_GEOM"

Put the GEOM related options into the intended order.

Add "options NO_GEOM" to all kernel configs apart from NOTES.

In some order of controlled fashion, the NO_GEOM options will be
removed, architecture by architecture in the coming days.

There are currently three known issues which may force people to
need the NO_GEOM option:

boot0cfg/fdisk:
        Tries to update the MBR while it is being used to control
        slices.  GEOM does not allow this as a direct operation.

SCSI floppy drives:
        Appearantly the scsi-da driver return "EBUSY" if no media
        is inserted.  This is wrong, it should return ENXIO.

PC98:
        It is unclear if GEOM correctly recognizes all variants of
        PC98 disklabels.  (Help Wanted!  I have neither docs nor HW)

These issues are all being worked.
