a new filesystem before packaging it into a disk image. This prevents
"remnants" of deleted files from showing up in the VM images, and reduces
their compressed size (by about 10% for the cloudware images) as a result.

post-install packaging cloud provider images.
Add a 'gce-package.sh' script to generate the final output
image ready for upload to the GCE platform. Right now, this
is the only image that has a specific output format (GNU-tar),
and this implementation is expected to be temporary.
This is not directly connected to the other release targets.

Add CLOUDINSTALL variable to automatically generate the
actual list of install targets. While here, rename the
cloud-specific names from 'vm-' to 'cw-' to avoid naming
collisions.
Add AZURE_DISK, GCE_DISK, and OPENSTACK_DISK output file
variables.
Add 'cloudware-install' to the 'install' target.

Separately document multi-threaded support to keep the
version update separate, so it remains correct if xz(1)
is updated again.

libarchive(3) doesn't support the new liblzma API yet, but this change
allows us to enable multi-threaded xz compression.
``make release'' should now finish in half the time on a machine with
several cores and fast disks (our typical build server).
This behaviour only applies when building a release and it doesn't
affect buildworld/installworld. To disable threaded xz compression,
set XZ_THREADS=1.

update paths; and include everything in the "base" distribution.
The "games" distribution being optional made sense when there were more
games and we had small disks; but the "games-like" games were moved into
the ports tree a dozen years ago and the remaining "utility-like" games
occupy less than 0.001% of my laptop's small hard drive. Meanwhile every
new user is confronted by the question "do you want games installed" when
they they try to install FreeBSD.
The next steps will be:
2. Removing punch card (bcd, ppt), phase-of-moon (pom), clock (grdc), and
caesar cipher (caesar, rot13) utilities. I intend to keep fortune, factor,
morse, number, primes, and random, since there is evidence that those are
still being used.
3. Merging src/games into src/usr.bin.
This change will not be MFCed.

While here, be sure to exit if usage() is called.
This should effectively be no-op, but the usage() output
was discovered while investigating a larger issue.

I was going to use __FreeBSD_version to determine if
xz(1) should be multi-threaded by default, but doing
this will cause problems if/when the changes are merged

Allow multi-threaded xz(1) to be turned off by specifying

by specifying XZ_THREADS=N.
