7df36e7050 Reformulate how sysinstall handles file system options in the label
editor, in order to support specifying UFS2 as a newfs option.

(1) Support three different newfs types: NEWFS_UFS, NEWFS_MSDOS, and
    NEWFS_CUSTOM.  Don't mix up the arguments to them: you can't use
    soft updates on an msdos file system.

(2) Distinguish adding new arguments to the newfs command line from
    replacing it.  Permit the addition of new arguments by the user for
    NEWFS_UFS.  If we entirely replace the command line provided by
    sysinstall, call it NEWFS_CUSTOM.  'N' will now add additional
    arguments; 'Z' will opt to replace the newfs command line entirely,
    but will prompt the user with their current command line as a
    starting point.

(3) Construct the newfs command line dynamically based on the options
    provided by the user at label-time.  Right now, this means selecting
    UFS1 vs. UFS2, and the soft updates flag.  Drop in some variables
    to support ACLs and MAC Multilabel in the future also, but don't
    expose them now.

This provides sysinstall with the ability to do more "in band" editing
of the newfs command line, so we can provide more support for the user,
but doesn't sacrifice the ability to entirely specify the newfs command
line of the user is willing to give up on the cushiness factor.  It
also makes it easier for us to specify defaults in the future, and
define conditional behavior based on user configuration selections.
For now, we default to UFS1, and permit UFS2 to be used as the root
only on non-i386 systems.

While I was there, I dropped the default fragment and block sizes,
since newfs has much more sensible defaults now.

59d748d531 This is a patch that makes some of the "partitions" --> "slice" to be
more consistant in our use of the terms for differentiation between PC
partitions and traditional BSD partitions.

89e0ab3dba This mega-commit brings in Jordan's latest sysinstall version..
This looks like it was developed offline, and is being spammed over the
top of the existing.  "That's fine by me!  I dont really care how you do
it, just get it in there..." said Jordan in a conversation a short while
ago...
