Teach the FreeBSD/beri boot to "auto-detect" whether argument 4 (a3) is a
memory size of pointer to a struct bootinfo * by looking at its value and
seeing whether it is pointer-like. If a pointer, assume it's a bootinfo
and extract memsize from it instead; otherwise, use it as memsize directly.
This allows kernels to support bootinfo being passed by loader (and boot2)
while still supporting older Miniboot setups.

When the module metadata pointer is available from loader, use it in the
kernel.

In the BERI kernel boot code, extract 'boothowto' (which includes boot flags
such as '-s') and 'envp' from passed module data. Booting to single-user
mode using boot flags now works.

In rtinit1, use the interface fib instead of the process fib. The
latter wasn't very useful because ifconfig(8) is usually invoked
with the default process fib. Changing ifconfig(8) to use setfib(2)
would be redundant, because it already sets the interface fib.

Instead of allocating up to 16MB or RAM at once to handle whole I/O,
allocate up to 1MB at a time, but do multiple ctl_datamove() and storage
I/Os if needed.
Some of the code in xen-locore.S was picked from Cherry G. Mathew
amd64 Xen PV branch, but I've failed to set the proper copyright, so
do it now.

This transitions the VAP in and out of SLEEP state based on:
* whether there's been an active transmission in the last (hardcoded) 500ms;
* whether the TIM from the AP indicates there is data available.
It uses the beacon reception to trigger the active traffic check.
This way there's no further timer running to wake up the CPU
from its own sleep states.
Right now the VAP isn't woken up for multicast traffic - mostly because
the only NIC I plan on doing this for right will auto wakeup and stay
awake for multicast traffic indicated in the TIM. So I don't have
to manually keep the hardware awake.
This doesn't do anything if the NIC doesn't advertise it implements
the new SWSLEEP capability AND if the VAP doesn't have powersave
enabled.
It also doesn't do much with ath(4) as it doesn't currently implement
the SLEEP state.
Tested:
* AR5416, STA mode (with local ath(4) changes)
This simplifies the code and should avoid the clang sparc
port from generating an abort() call.

Frames transmitted during SLEEP state should be queued in the
power save queue before waking the unit up. Otherwise DHCP
requests and such will be dropped if the NIC is asleep - the
NIC will wake up but not transmit the frame.

different things from this commit:
+ More devices. Devices that were previously ignored are now present.
+ Faster device scanning. "There is no try, only Do" -- f_device_try()
is no longer the basis of device scanning as GEOM provides [nearly]
all devices (doesn't provide network devices).
+ More information available as non-root. Usually you have to be root
to do things like taste filesystems, and that limits the amount of
information available to non-root users; with GEOM, we see all even
running unprivileged as the brunt of information (except for so-
called ``dangerously dedicated'' file systems) is represented by the
`kern.geom.confxml' sysctl(8) MIB.
NB: Only really useful for external scripts that use the API and run as
non-root; where this code is used in bsdconfig(8) and bsdinstall(8)
you are running as root so can detect even ``dangerously dedicated''
file systems that are not present in GEOM; e.g., no PART class for
a DOS filesystem written directly to disk without partition table).
+ No more use of legacy tools such as diskinfo(8) to get disk capacity
or fdisk(8) to see partitions.

- Sort the option string passed to getopts and the case statements for
the option returned by getopts.
- Add a -C option to specify the device to be used for the console
(defaults to 'stdio') (This could be let vmrun be run in the background
by using /dev/nmdm0B or the like)
- Add a -H option to specify a host path to pass to bhyveload(8) via
-h to back the host0: filesystem in bhyveload(8) (useful for loading
kernels from the host into the guest without having to copy them into
the guest's disk image first)
