Just like FreeBSD+Capsicum, CloudABI uses process descriptors. Return
the file descriptor number to the parent process.
To the child process we both return a special value for the file
descriptor number (CLOUDABI_PROCESS_CHILD). We also return the thread ID
of the new thread in the copied process, so the threading library can
reinitialize itself.

This change refactors the existing create_thread() function to be more
generic. It replaces almost all of its arguments by a callback that can
be used to extract the thread ID and copy it out to the right place, but
also to perform additional initialization steps, such as setting the
trapframe. This also makes the difference between thr_new() and
thr_create() more clear in my opinion.
This function is going to be used by the CloudABI compatibility layer.
It looks like the OpenSolaris compatibility framework already provides a
function called thread_create(). Rename this function to
do_thread_create() and use a macro to deal with the namespacing
conflict. A similar approach is already used for thread_exit().

We want to ensure we always use libarchive from ports in the ports tree.
It simplifies ports maintainance and anyway libarchive.pc was not reflecting the
different way libarchive can be built in base

Remove useless release semantic for some stores to it_need. For
stores where the release is needed, add a comment explaining why.
Fence after the atomic_cmpset() op on the it_need should be acquire
only, release is not needed (see above). The combination of
atomic_cmpset() + fence_acq() is better expressed there as
atomic_cmpset_acq().
Use atomic_cmpset() for swi' ih_need read and clear.

For Lenovo laptops with buggy bios (x220, t420, t520):
Write the 0xee entry into the second slot in the pmbr instead of the first
For some Dell and HP models:
The BIOS gives a warning message when booting in legacy mode from a GPT partitioned disk where the 0xee partition in the pmbr is not flagged active
For models known to have this problem, mark the pmbr active during installation
Use smbios data to identify machines known to be affected by any of the above, and offer the user the option to apply the workaround
In bsdinstall's ufs auto mode (autopart partition wizard):
Allow users to select which type of partition table to use
Keep current defaults: MBR for BIOS, GPT for UEFI
This allows users to choose GPT for legacy boot if they wish

but causes problems with the cards the behave correctly and don't become
deselected. Forcing a deselect then reselect appears to work correctly
with all cards in initial testing.

Split the combined p_xstat of the struct proc into the separate exit
status p_xexit for normal process exit, and signalled termination
information p_xsig. Kernel-visible macro KW_EXITCODE() reconstructs
old p_xstat from p_xexit and p_xsig. p_xexit contains complete status
and copied out into si_status.
