The new RTC emulation supports all interrupt modes: periodic, update ended
and alarm. It is also capable of maintaining the date/time and NVRAM contents
across virtual machine reset. Also, the date/time fields can now be modified
by the guest.
Since bhyve now emulates both the PIT and the RTC there is no need for
"Legacy Replacement Routing" in the HPET so get rid of it.
The RTC device state can be inspected via bhyvectl as follows:
bhyvectl --vm=vm --get-rtc-time
bhyvectl --vm=vm --set-rtc-time=<unix_time_secs>
bhyvectl --vm=vm --rtc-nvram-offset=<offset> --get-rtc-nvram
bhyvectl --vm=vm --rtc-nvram-offset=<offset> --set-rtc-nvram=<value>

just "directory" entries.
Prior to this commit, if / was added as part of a security update (how? In
the most recent case, because lib32 was accidentally omitted and was then
re-added, and every installer distribution set gets its own paths) then
the code which was supposed to filter out updates to deleted parts of the
base system (if someone decides to delete / then we shouldn't re-create it
for them) would instead get confused and decided that while / should exist,
// should not exist and needs to be removed.
This fixes the bug which caused freebsd-update to want to delete / (which is
harmless, since `rm /` fails, but scary nonetheless). A workaround is being
applied to the update bits in order to avoid triggering the bug on unpatched
systems.

Previously we used gnop(8) to fake 4K sector size disks but ZFS now has a
sysctl to control this when creating new top level vdev's so use that
instead.

new dpv(3) wrapper to dialog(3) dialog_gauge(). The dpv(3) library provides
a more flexible and refined interface similar to dialog_mixedgauge() however
is implemented atop the more generalized dialog_gauge() for portability.
Noticeable improvements in bsdinstall's distextract will be a status line
showing data rate information (with support for localeconv(3) to format
numbers according to $LANG or $LC_ALL conversion information), i18n support,
improved auto-sizing of gauge widget, a ``wheel barrow'' to keep the user
informed that things are moving (even if status/progress has not changed),
improved color support (mini-progress bars use the same color, if enabled,
as the main gauge bar), and several other improvements (some not visible).
dpv stands for "dialog progress view" (dpv was introduced in SVN r274116).

While in most cases CTL should correctly fetch those values from backing
storages, there are some initiators (like MS SQL), that may not like large
physical block sizes, even if they are true. For such cases allow override
fetched values with supported ones (like 4K).

There is still one deficiency - the mountpoints are permanent, they
don't disappear when user removes the media. Fixing it needs some
autofs changes.

Technically read requests can be executed in any order or simultaneously
since they are not changing any data. But ZFS prefetcher goes crasy when
it receives consecutive requests from different threads. Since prefetcher
works on level of separate blocks, instead of two consecutive 128K requests
it may receive 32 8K requests in mixed order.
This patch is more workaround then a real fix, and it does not fix all of
prefetcher problems, but it improves sequential read speed by 3-4x times
in some configurations. On the other side it may hurt performance if
some backing store has no prefetch, that is why it is disabled by default
for raw devices.
