Rework the DSDT generation code a bit to generate more accurate info about
LPC devices. Among other things, the LPC serial ports now appear as
ACPI devices.
Several enhancements to the I/O APIC support in bhyve including:
- Move the I/O APIC device model from userspace into vmm.ko and add
ioctls to assert and deassert I/O APIC pins.
- Add HPET device emulation including a single timer block with 8 timers.
- Remove the 'vdev' abstraction.

these.
The mux-vcpus option may return at some point, given it's utility
in finding bhyve (and FreeBSD) bugs.

bhyve is intended to be a generic hypervisor, and not FreeBSD-specific.
(renaming internal routines will come later)
