Now we are trying to write bootcode:
1. Directly to provider (if we can open it for writing);
2. Via GEOM_PART (if it is available);
3. Via GEOM_MBR.

While there, replace __const by const, which seems to be our preference
nowadays. Also fix some style(9) bugs by adding newlines and removing
unneeded spaces from function declarations.
pwd_mkdb, etc. updates at the end of the comparison.
2. Add an update to the end to handle /etc/localtime, if it exists.
If /var/db/zoneinfo exists, automatically update /etc/localtime,
which should (hopefully) be safe to do. If not, prompt the user
to run tzsetup.
3. Update run_it_now(), the function that handles input for the updates,
to make sure that we got a valid answer, and to handle the --run-updates
option if supplied.
I have some packages that install to / (for whatever reason). Right now we
print entries of the form //path/to/file when listing files (pkg_info -L,
pkg_info -g etc.) This change avoids printing the redundant / .

Query for this feature in /sbin/atacontrol and /usr/sbin/burncd.
If these utilities detect that ATA_CAM is enabled, then these utilities
will error out. These utilities are compatible with the old ATA
driver, but are incomptible with the new ATA_CAM driver. By erroring out,
we give end-users an idea as to what remedies to use, and reduce the need for them
to file PR's. For atacontrol, camcontrol must be used instead,
and for burncd, alternative utilties from the ports collection must be used
such as sysutils/cdrtools.
In future, maybe someone can re-write burncd to work with ATA_CAM,
but at least for now, we give a somewhat useful error message to end users.
