Now that we no longer have GCC 4.2.1 in the tree and can assume FreeBSD
is being built with a C++11 compiler available, we can use BSDL dtc
unconditionally and retire the GPL dtc.
GPL dtc now has FreeBSD CI support via Cirrus-CI to help ensure it
continues to build/work on FreeBSD and is available in the ports tree
if needed.
The copy of (copyfree licensed) libfdt that we actually use is in
sys/contrib/libfdt so the extra copy under contrib/dtc/libfdt can be
removed along with the rest of the GPL dtc.

As described in Warner's email message[1] to the FreeBSD-arch mailing
list we have reached GCC 4.2.1's retirement date. At this time all
supported architectures either use in-tree Clang, or rely on external
toolchain (i.e., a contemporary GCC version from ports).
GCC 4.2.1 was released July 18, 2007 and was imported into FreeBSD later
that year, in r171825. GCC has served us well, but version 4.2.1 is
obsolete and not used by default on any architecture in FreeBSD. It
does not support modern C and does not support arm64 or RISC-V.
Thanks to everyone responsible for maintaining, updating, and testing
GCC in the FreeBSD base system over the years.
So long, and thanks for all the fish.

simple_httpd was granted a reprieve from the picobsd removal based on having
some reported user; it turns out this user isn't actually using the version
in base and merging their changes would be difficult at this point, so the
version in base will simply continue to rot. Retire it now, it may make a
comeback to ports with the improved version.
No notice issued because its current visibility has only been for ~3
months, and a notice has been previously issued about picobsd removal.
In order to do so we need to install the msdosfs headers to the bootstrap
sysroot and avoid includes of kernel headers that may not exist on every
host (e.g. sys/lockmgr.h). This change should allow bootstrapping of makefs
on FreeBSD 11+ as well as Linux and macOS.
We also have to avoid using the IO_SYNC macro since that may not be
available. In makefs it is only used to switch between calling
bwrite() and bdwrite() which both call the same function. Therefore we
can simply always call bwrite().
For our CheriBSD builds we always bootstrap makefs by setting
LOCAL_XTOOL_DIRS='lib/libnetbsd usr.sbin/makefs' and use the makefs binary
from the build tree to create a bootable disk image.

${WORLDTMP}/legacy/usr/libexec will only have libexec/ bits that we've
pushed as bootstrap tools, so this is generally safe to include prior to
PATH. The following are the ramifications of this change:
- BPATH addition gets us at least bootstrap flua in WMAKEENV path for
buildenv, for those earlier systems where it's bootstrapped still
- Reworked the sysent target to just set PATH and let it get worked out in
src.lua.mk or individual sysent makefiles -- this gives us back the
ability to overwrite LUA_CMD and use a different/external lua for these
targets. sysent can also now work cleanly in buildenv.
- tools/build/Makefile will now symlink the host flua into build's host
tools so that the above can work without needing to add the host's
/usr/libexec explicitly into TMPPATH.

Summary:
Enable on powerpc64 and in lib/libclang_rt/Makefile change
MACHINE_CPUARCH to MACHINE_ARCH because on powerpc64
MACHINE_ARCH==MACHINE_CPUARCH so the 32-bit library overwrites 64-bit
library during installworld.
This patch doesn't enable any other libclang_rt libraries because they
need to be separately ported.
I have verified that games/julius (which fails on powerpc64 elfv2
without this change because of no libclang_rt profiling library) builds.
