This corresponds to r43586 through r43593 of the doc/

set up for the amd64/amd64 TARGET/TARGET_ARCH combination.
Some of the build tools used here (u-boot in particular) require
use of gcc(1). The lang/gcc* from ports/ will install as 'gccNN'
instead of 'gcc', so they cannot be used without extra hacks.
Add an EMBEDDED_WORLD_FLAGS variable to be used to properly set
up the build chroot. For the RPI-B case, EMBEDDED_WORLD_FLAGS
is set to 'WITH_GCC=1', which is used to set up the build chroot.
While here, in followup to r260895, do not rely on the necessary
configuration files and/or scripts to exist in the build target
src/ tree.
To work around cases where files do not exist, copy (from the
local release/ checkout) the tools/${XDEV}/crochet-${KERNEL}.conf
to ${CHROOTDIR}/tmp/external/crochet-${KERNEL}.conf to make them
accessible to the external utilities that need them (i.e., crochet).

In general, the workflow used for the latest releases has been
to checkout head/release/ to a directory outside of any build
environments, modify the release.conf accordingly, and run:
# ./release.sh -c ./release.conf
By moving tools/release/${XDEV}/ (for RPI-B build testing, in
this case), any dependency on a different branch of the source
tree can be removed. In particular, release.sh expects the
tools/release/${XDEV}/crochet-${KERNEL}.conf file to exist, so
by moving the crochet configuration file to a directory in
release/, it becomes possible to build images for branches that
do not yet have the necessary configuration files and/or scripts.

- Add a release-dvd.conf pkg(8) configuration file to override
the default FreeBSD.conf configuration.
- Remove architecture-specific pkg-stage.conf files, consolidate,
and move their contents to scripts/pkg-stage.sh.
- Use 'pkg -vv' to determine the ABI, which is used as the
cache directory.
Prior to these changes, it would be possible for pkg-stage to fetch
conflicting binary packages from multiple repositories.

release.sh:
- Modify release/release.sh to recognize an 'EMBEDDEDBUILD'
variable. When set, release/release.sh will build the chroot
userland as is done for big-iron builds.
- Instead of running the 'buildworld', 'buildkernel', and
'release' targets in the chroot, a separate script is run.
The script tools/release/${XDEV}/release.sh sets up the rest
of the chroot workspace, such as installing ports that will
be needed, and building the 'xdev' target.
- crochet (by kientzle@) is checked out from the upstream
repository (and if needed, u-boot, in the case of Raspberry
Pi).
- tools/release/${XDEV}/release.sh then runs crochet with
a configuration file specific to the ${KERNCONF} being built.
Note that this is effectively a first-pass attempt to integrate
this into the release process.

When building the system from outside the chroot as part of the release
process, ensure the objdir is within the chroot so that the whole output
of the release.sh script is self-contained in a single directory.
Use CHROOTDIR/tmp/obj instead of CHROOTDIR/usr/obj to minimize possible
interferences with the output of the build itself.

With an unpopulated chroot dir, release building was failing because
the script was attempting to copy resolv.conf into a non-existent /etc
directory of the chroot. Fix this by copying the file only after the
installworld has happened, which will create this directory.
