a53dc19376 Convert syscons on i386 to TERM=xterm.
TEKEN_XTERM is now gone. Because we always use xterm mode now, we only
need a TEKEN_CONS25 switch to go back to cons25.

f49c0a7c60 Switch the default terminal emulation style to xterm for most platforms.
Right now syscons(4) uses a cons25-style terminal emulator. The
disadvantages of that are:

- Little compatibility with embedded devices with serial interfaces.
- Bad bandwidth efficiency, mainly because of the lack of scrolling
  regions.
- A very hard transition path to support for modern character sets like
  UTF-8.

Our terminal emulation library, libteken, has been supporting
xterm-style terminal emulation for months, so flip the switch and make
everyone use an xterm-style console driver.

I still have to enable this on i386. Right now pc98 and i386 share the
same /etc/ttys file. I'm not going to switch pc98, because it uses its
own Kanji-capable cons25 emulator.

IMPORTANT: What to do if things go wrong (i.e. graphical artifacts):

- Run the application inside script(1), try to reduce the problem and
  send me the log file.
- In the mean time, you can run `vidcontrol -T cons25' and `export
  TERM=cons25' so you can run applications the same way you did before.
  You can also build your kernel with `options TEKEN_CONS25' to make all
  virtual terminals use the cons25 emulator by default.

82e712d5ed Move sysinstall/sade away from TIOCGSIZE.
Both sysinstall and sade still seem to use the TIOCGSIZE ioctl to obtain
the terminal dimensions. We'd better use TIOCGWINSZ to do this. The
TIOCGWINSZ interface is preferred, because it also allows sizes in pixels
to be passed to the application (though this is not used here).

196b6346ba Significantly reduce the memory leak as noted in BUGS section for
setenv(3) by tracking the size of the memory allocated instead of using
strlen() on the current value.

Convert all calls to POSIX from historic BSD API:
 - unsetenv returns an int.
 - putenv takes a char * instead of const char *.
 - putenv no longer makes a copy of the input string.
 - errno is set appropriately for POSIX.  Exceptions involve bad environ
   variable and internal initialization code.  These both set errno to
   EFAULT.

Several patches to base utilities to handle the POSIX changes from
Andrey Chernov's previous commit.  A few I re-wrote to use setenv()
instead of putenv().

New regression module for tools/regression/environ to test these
functions.  It also can be used to test the performance.

Bump __FreeBSD_version to 700050 due to API change.

6ccaf050cc Back out all POSIXified *env() changes.
Not because I admit they are technically wrong and not because of bug
reports (I receive nothing). But because I surprisingly meets so
strong opposition and resistance so lost any desire to continue that.

Anyone who interested in POSIX can dig out what changes and how
through cvs diffs.

012251a378 Say welcome to 'sade', the SysAdmins Disk Editor. It's the fdisk and disklabel part
of sysinstall. So sysinstall may retire now, we have the important non-install part
of it covered.

ATM it doesn't understand GEOM stuff (like mirror, stripe, raid, ...), but patches
to change this and to clean it up internally are more than welcome.

fa1fbfedc2 Revamp base system packaging of kernels to enable up/smp selection
at runtime and to support distributing additional kernels:
o remove kernel from the base tarball
o add new kernel tarballs
o build + package both SMP and GENERIC kernels when an <arch>/conf/SMP
  config file is present
o add sysinstall support for multiple kernels
o update sysinstall to probe for the number of cpus on a system
  and auto-select smp/up kernel accordingly
o add a post-kernels install hook to fixup /boot/kernel
o add -ldevinfo to boot crunch for sysinstall's cpu probing logic

Notes:
1. On HEAD this code is not currently used because GENERIC kernels
   include SMP.  This work is mainly intended for RELENG_6 where the
   GENERIC kernel is UP.  If HEAD changes to match then just enable
   WITH_SMP in sysinstall/Makefile.
2. The cpu probing support is done with acpi and MPTable; this means
   some systems will require work for auto-detection to work.
3. The handling of /boot/kernel may need to be revisited; for now
   we rename one kernel at the last moment (SMP if installed, otherwise
   GENERIC).  There are other, possibly better, approaches.

Lots of help from ru, emaste, scottl, and jhb.

this now compiles on i386 with WARNS?= 3.  Most of the fixes included
adding missing 'static' keywords to internal functions, using fully-defined

signed vs unsigned mismatches.  Also G/C'd unused configSecurity()

0aeeea8f00 - Autogenerate a menu containing a list of countries and keymaps supported
by syscons.
- If we are running as init, popup the country menu before the main menu.
  If a non-default country is chosen, then a second menu is brought up
  to let the user choose a keymap.  By default the default keymap for
  the country that was selected is highlighted.  If the user chooses the
  default country, then the default keymap is just assumed and the user
  is not presented with the keymap menu.  Currently the default country
  is set to "United States" except for PC98 which assumes "Japan".
