The old VN device broke in -4.x when the definition of B_PAGING
changed. This patch fixes this plus implements additional capabilities.
The new VN device can be backed by a file ( as per normal ), or it can
be directly backed by swap.
Due to dependencies in VM include files (on opt_xxx options) the new
vn device cannot be a module yet. This will be fixed in a later commit.

world breakage (mainly for cross-world cases). The world Makefile
attempts to build tools static so that nonexistent or wrong shared
libraries and interpreters don't get used. This is broken anyway
since the world Makefile doesn't know about svr4_genassym.
Force building svr4_genassym static. This is part of "fixing"
aout-to-elf-build breakage. aout-to-elf-build abuses NOTOOLS to
avoid rebuilding all the aout tools. This saves time and avoids
some complications. However, it breaks all the internal tools --
they get linked to target libraries which might not work. Cases
where the host can run the target's static libraries are "fixed"
by encrufting all Makefiles that build internal tools to build the
tools static.
Don't add .depend to CLEANFILES -- it just breaks the separation of
`make cleandepend' from `make clean'.
Removed some superflous explicit dependencies.

- Store the current video mode information in the `video_adapter' struct.
- The size of the `v_offscreensize' field in the VESA mode information
block is u_int16, not u_int8.
XXX It probably makes sense to have a flag for bsd.kern.mk to avoid these
rules.
XXX IO_NDELAY seems to be the main reason for it, when used in a cdevsw
read or write "flag" context. Perhaps a redundant declaration
somewhere like sys/conf.h might help remove the need for vnode.h in
these device drivers in the first place.

It can handle W*ndows 256 color BMP file. (Other color depth probably
won't work.) The size of the image must be 320x200 or less. *sigh*
keyboard and video card drivers.
Because of the changes, you are required to update your kernel
configuration file now!
The files in sys/dev/syscons are still i386-specific (but less so than
before), and won't compile for alpha and PC98 yet.
syscons still directly accesses the video card registers here and
there; this will be rectified in the later stages.
