As of this patchset, the loader builds (under NetBSD/macppc), boots, interacts
and talks to BOOTP/NFS servers.
(main.c was moved from boot/ofw/libofw to boot/ofw/common but has no revision

Perhaps requiring the space is a bit too much, but...

gets the name from the environment variable kernelname, which is set
when a kernel is loaded. For this reason, autoboot will _first_ try
to load a kernel, and only proceed with the wait prompt after that
succeeds. If it fails, it will abort immediately.
While I understand some may think this behavior undesirable, I think
it is, overall, the best thing to do, even if we do not consider the
aesthetic issue. Notice that anyone using the default loader.rc
already has the kernel loaded before autoboot.
On unload, unset kernelname.
Separate the code that tries to load a kernel from the list of options
to the function loadakernel(). It is used by both boot() and
autoboot().

Set sourceid to 0 when booting, which is the correct setting for stdin.
Set sourceid to an arbitrary fd when include'ing, preserving and restoring
the previous sourceid. This is possibly broken(), as 0 is a valid fd. Maybe
we should +1 to this value.
This fixes the version problem widely reported.

There is still a lesser bug in that the loader decides which file to boot
after the 10sec count down. This means the bootfile listed in the count
down in is wrong in the case where the loader will boot /kernel.old.
- Add support for using the PCI BIOS functions for configuration space
accesses, and make this the default.
- Make PNPBIOS the default (obsoletes the PNPBIOS config option).
- Add two new boot-time tunables to disable each of the above.

Add bcache_flash().
The actual fix is sligthly different from the one in the PR.
