UFS/MSDOSFS label issues on FreeBSD/arm builds, however
the real problem was addressed in r285076, which is due

FreeBSD/arm builds. The problem stems from the loader.rc file
not existing, as well as geom_label not being loaded at boot.
For now, add the geom_label_load entry to loader.conf, and
symlink loader.rc.sample to loader.rc, both of which allowed
my BeagleBone Black to boot fine with a UFS label reference in
fstab(5).

written to disk with newfs(8) and newfs_msdosfs(8).
When iterating through snapshot builds in serial, it is possible for
a build failure to leave stale md(4) devices behind, in some cases, they
could have a UFS or MSDOS filesystem label assigned.
If the md(4) is not destroyed (or not able to be destroyed, as has
happened recently due to my own fault), the filesystem label that
already exists can interfere with a new md(4) device that is targeted to
have the same label.
This behavior, although admittedly a logic error in the wrapper build
scripts, has caused intermittent reports (in particular with the armv6
builds) of missing UFS/MSDOSFS labels, causing the image to fallback to
the mountroot prompt. This appears to only happen when the backing
md(4) device is destroyed before the calling umount(8) on the target
mount, after which the UFS/MSDOSFS label persists.
The workaround is this: If EVERYTHINGISFINE is set to non-empty value,
check for an existing ufs/rootfs and msdosfs/MSDOSBOOT filesystem label
in arm_create_disk(), and rm(1) them if they exist.
The EVERYTHINGISFINE variable is chosen because it is used in exactly
one other place - release/Makefile.mirrors - and there are big scary
warnings at the top of that file as well that it should *not* be used
under normal circumstances. This should not destroy a build machine
that also uses '/dev/ufs/rootfs' as the UFS label, and I have verified
in extensive local testing that the destroyed label is recreated when
the md(4) is unmounted/mounted, but this really should not be enabled
by anyone.
Having said all that, I absolutely *do* plan MFC this to stable/10 for
the 10.2-RELEASE cycle, as so far, I have only observed this behavior
on stable/10, but this is a temporary solution until I can unravel all
of the failure paths to properly trap them.

machine images to the Google Compute Engine platform.
By default, gcutil/gsutil requires an Oauth2 login generated
from a URL that must be opened in a browser, a verification
code copied back to the terminal from which it was invoked,
etc., etc., making it near impossible for automation.
I've hacked together an evil solution to work around this,
so unless GCE_LOGIN_SKIP is set to a non-empty value, this
Makefile will not do anything useful.
As a result of this commit, remove the gce-package.sh script
that was never, nor will ever be, used.

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.
