Of note:
- This commit adds native FreeBSD/arm release build support without
requiring out-of-tree utilities.
- Part of this merge removes the WANDBOARD-{SOLO,DUAL,QUAD} kernel
configuration files, for which the IMX6 kernel configuration file
should be used instead.
- The resulting images have a 'freebsd' user (password 'freebsd'),
to allow ssh(1) access when console access is not available (VGA
or serial). The default 'root' user password is set to 'root'.
- The /etc/ttys file for arm images now enable both ttyv0 and ttyu0
by default.

used for building virtual machine disk images. By default,
only arm_create_disk() and arm_install_base() contain real
functionality here, and arm_install_uboot() must be overridden
in the arm/KERNEL.conf file.
In release.sh, make create_arm_armv6_build_release() do
something now.
In arm/BEAGLEBONE.conf, set IMAGE_SIZE, PART_SCHEME, FAT_SIZE,
FAT_TYPE, and MD_ARGS, as well as make arm_install_uboot()

Parts of this were taken from disecting a previous BEAGLEBONE

Although arm64 does not yet have USB support, the memstick

r281792:
Add a buildenv_setup() prototype, intended to be overridden as
needed.
For example, the arm64/aarch64 build needs devel/aarch64-binutils,
so buildenv_setup() in the release.conf for this architecture
handles the installation of the port before buildworld/buildkernel.

variables. These are intended to allow bypassing the
'svn co /usr/{src,doc,ports}' step in the chroot when the
tree exists from external means.
The use case here is that /usr/src, /usr/doc, and /usr/ports
in the chroot exist as result of zfs dataset clones, so it
is possible (and happens quite often) that the included
distributions may not be consistent. (This is not the case
for -RELEASE builds, but does happen for snapshot builds.)

When set to a non-empty value, the installation medium is
compressed with gzip(1) as part of the 'install' target in
the release/ directory.
With gzip(1) compression, downloadable image are reduced in
size quite significantly. Build test against head@263927
shows the following:
bootonly.iso: 64% smaller
disc1.iso: 44% smaller
memstick.img: 47% smaller
mini-memstick.img: 65% smaller
dvd1.iso: untested
This option is off by default, I would eventually like to
turn it on by default, and remove the '-k' flag to gzip(1)
so only compressed images are published on FTP.

After several months of testing and fixing (and breaking)
various parts of release/release.sh changes, it is now
possible to build FreeBSD/arm images as part of the release
process.
When EMBEDDEDBUILD is set in the release.conf file, release.sh
will create the build environment, then run a separate script
in release/${XDEV}/release.sh [1]. Currently, only arm is
supported.
The release/${XDEV}/release.sh configures the build environment
specific for the target image, such as installing gcc(1),
installing additional third-party software from the ports tree,
and fetching external sources.
Once the build environment is set up, release/${XDEV}/release.sh
runs Crochet, written by Tim Kientzle, which builds the userland
and kernel, and creates an image that can be written to an SD
card with dd(1). Many thanks to Tim for his work on Crochet.
Sample configurations for FreeBSD/arm boards are in the
release/arm/ directory, and Crochet configuration files for each
board are located in release/tools/arm/. Supported boards at this
time are: BEAGLEBONE, PANDABOARD, RPI-B, and WANDBOARD-QUAD.
Adding support for additional boards will continue in the
projects/release-embedded/ branch, and incrementally merged back
to head/.
Many thanks to the FreeBSD Foundation for the support and
sponsorship of this project.
[1] XDEV is used in order to keep the various configurations
organized by architecture, but since TARGET and TARGET_ARCH
are used to build the chroot, the values of those variables
cannot be used.

build to arm/release.sh.
This prevents needing to build a separate chroot environment for

set up for the amd64/amd64 TARGET/TARGET_ARCH combination.
Some of the build tools used here (u-boot in particular) require
use of gcc(1). The lang/gcc* from ports/ will install as 'gccNN'
instead of 'gcc', so they cannot be used without extra hacks.
Add an EMBEDDED_WORLD_FLAGS variable to be used to properly set
up the build chroot. For the RPI-B case, EMBEDDED_WORLD_FLAGS
is set to 'WITH_GCC=1', which is used to set up the build chroot.
While here, in followup to r260895, do not rely on the necessary
configuration files and/or scripts to exist in the build target
src/ tree.
To work around cases where files do not exist, copy (from the
local release/ checkout) the tools/${XDEV}/crochet-${KERNEL}.conf
to ${CHROOTDIR}/tmp/external/crochet-${KERNEL}.conf to make them
accessible to the external utilities that need them (i.e., crochet).

release.sh:
- Modify release/release.sh to recognize an 'EMBEDDEDBUILD'
variable. When set, release/release.sh will build the chroot
userland as is done for big-iron builds.
- Instead of running the 'buildworld', 'buildkernel', and
'release' targets in the chroot, a separate script is run.
The script tools/release/${XDEV}/release.sh sets up the rest
of the chroot workspace, such as installing ports that will
be needed, and building the 'xdev' target.
- crochet (by kientzle@) is checked out from the upstream
repository (and if needed, u-boot, in the case of Raspberry
Pi).
- tools/release/${XDEV}/release.sh then runs crochet with
a configuration file specific to the ${KERNCONF} being built.
Note that this is effectively a first-pass attempt to integrate
this into the release process.
