69ac164732 Put all variables in VAR_ #define's to force a single location for all
of these magic knobs.  This is purely cosmetic and a documentation issue
so we don't have to glop through the source code looking for gems.

4a50ae9ab3 Add a new netInteractive variable so that the interactiveness of the TCP
setup dialog from scripts is more controllable.  No more biasing off of
hostname (which is now non-optional in the non-netInteractive case).

d0ef76de67 Scrolling partition and label lists now make it possible to partition
lots of disks from sysinstall.  Yay!  Please test this as much as
possible with any 3.0 SNAP later than 970910 (I.E. tomorrow's snap),
especially those of you with larger disk farms.

321a8d519a Make upgrade potentially a little less interactive.
Add and document new loadConfig function (sort of like a script #include).

86ff624834 Make some changes to the way the label editor reads script variables
so you don't need to re-enter it for each and every filesystem. Heads up!
This change is incompatible with the previous scripting format,
so those folks (all 2 of you) using config files should take a look
at the changes to the sample install.cfg file for the diskLabelEditor's
new calling syntax.

Finally write a man page for this thing, documenting all of the above
and more.  I can't drive a stake through this thing's heart without
properly documenting it first, so please consider this step #1 in that
process (to be honest, sysinstall will also live on for some time in
the 2.2. branch since it's unlikely that the new install tools will ever
make it over there - they're strictly 3.0 material).

97564a75d4 Back out the changes to set the resolver timeout. All they seem to do
is _break_ dns lookups entirely, and since reading the relevant docs and
source code does not enlighten for now, I'll remove this until more
basic research has been done into controlling the resolver's timeout
values.

e5a117774b Fiddle with DNS options so that queries are also controlled by
the MEDIA_TIMEOUT variable.  Just -current for now on this one as
I'm still wanting to play with this a bit and see what the ramifications
of doing this are.

b6aad04900 Make serial console based installs actually work by:
1. Detecting the split /dev/ttyv0 / /dev/console case, e.g. you've
   booted with the -h flag and you have a VGA card also.

2. Adding an extra "menu" for selecting terminal type and adding ANSI
   to the list of compiled-in terms.

3. Opening the proper file descriptors before disowning ourselves.
