rename option arguments in the manpage's `SYNOPSIS' section to
match those from `usage' (not the other way around; the `usage'-line
(and other parts of makefs.c) contain the correct names);
minor punctuation improvements.

Add code to generate bootable ISOs on Powermac and CHRP systems.
Synthesize some partition maps (APM and MBR, respectively) pointing
to (a) the whole disk, and (b) relevant El Torito boot images that
have been added by other code. These partition maps are a little
bit funny looking, but they seem to work. FreeBSD has been using
this successfully in their release generation on powerpc, as well
as generating all non-SPARC install media. SPARC support could
probably be added as an extension of this patch.
This is done by adding the general ability to stuff non-SUSP data into
the end of the System Use field of a Directory Record, which required
some amount of rewriting of the SUSP support. I think the result is
at least as good as what came before, and I've fixed at least one bug
along the way. Tested against RISC OS 3.70 on my Risc PC.
Oh, why do we want it? It should allow us to make acorn{26,32} CDs that
can be booted directly from RISC OS without mucking around copying the
bootloader to a native filing system.

Prototyping, KNF, WARNS=3 by me.
Note that this is marked experimental for now. It works well enough to
make NetBSD/i386 bootable images, but does need more work.
64 bit block pointers, extended attribute storage, and a few
other things.
This commit does not yet include the code to manipulate the extended
storage (for e.g. ACLs), this will be done later.

just like all the other "global" options.
Update the usage for -x.

(Thanks to Jason for adding -x; I've been meaning to add that
functionality for a while :-)
version. The new version supports products, 'g' (GB) and 't' (TB)
suffices, and `b' now means `blocks' instead of `bytes'.
Functionality requested by perry.
- debug is now a u_int instead of an int.
- Ensure that various numbers have sane upper limits (e.g, 99 for %, etc)
It doesn't need any special privileges or kernel devices.
Only ffs image creation is supported at this time, although makefs has been
designed to allow the addition of other file system formats by writing new
back-ends.
