Mateusz Piotrowski 1655b2314e Mount devfs inside a beinstall(8) chroot 
It turns out that without /dev/null beinstall is not able to complete and
instead exits with messages similar to these:

  --------------------------------------------------------------

  Destroyed successfully
  error: Installworld failed!

Upon a bit of debugging, it turns out that /dev/null inside the chroot
environment is full random bytes, which cause "make -f /dev/null" to
misbehave. Mounting a proper devfs inside the chroot seems to be the most
appropriate way to fix it.

will@ also noted that this change requires that whatever is needed in devfs
must exist in the old kernel.

This directory tree contains tools used for the maintenance and
testing of FreeBSD.  There is no toplevel Makefile structure since
these tools are not meant to be built as part of the standard system,
though there may be individual Makefiles in some of the subdirs.
