images and building snapshots. Also allows snapshots to be built in

This adds support for EtherExpress/16 cards with 16k of RAM, and in the
process adds general support for PIO mode on these cards. This entails
changing the way the i82586 driver handles bus barriers, since it doesn't
allow for strange cases like this.
This has been tested on the i386 port with the 'ix' driver in both
16KB (which was the source of the problem) and 32KB modes, as well
as with the 'ef' driver. I've tested it (briefly) with 'ei' on arm26
as well. In theory, drivers other than 'ix' should follow precisely the
same code paths as before.
and link it directly to db_command_table[] so that it's not necessary
to do this at runtime. Make db_machine_command_table[] const on all ports.
g/c now unneded stuff, like db_machine_commands_install(), db_machine_init()

enough, e.g. it has been initialized already by inittodr() or set
explicitly before by resettodr(). This prevents the TOD clock from going
way backwards when typing `halt' at the `mount root filesystem' prompt.
XXX if you have libc after citrus locale import, please recompile libc,
and your applications that use mbstate_t (rather rare). really sorry
for the mess.

This addresses kern/10981 by Matthew Orgass.
* move all exec-type specific information from struct emul to execsw[] and
provide single struct emul per emulation
* elf:
- kern/exec_elf32.c:probe_funcs[] is gone, execsw[] how has one entry
per emulation and contains pointer to respective probe function
- interp is allocated via MALLOC() rather than on stack
- elf_args structure is allocated via MALLOC() rather than malloc()
* ecoff: the per-emulation hooks moved from alpha and mips specific code
to OSF1 and Ultrix compat code as appropriate, execsw[] has one entry per
emulation supporting ecoff with appropriate probe function
* the makecmds/probe functions don't set emulation, pointer to emulation is
part of appropriate execsw[] entry
* constify couple of structures
rather than assigning to the whole field, set or clear individual flags,
which implies that the B_BUSY and B_INVAL flags will remain set.
this allows us to make the assertion in brelse() that B_BUSY is set,
which is the purpose of all this.

the D1000's && A1000s out there now). I'll do it in sparc64 as soon
as I get that running for myself.

(Some installers may not be using sysinst, in which case this just reduces
the number of ptys from 16 that are not used to 2 that are not used)
For i386 conf files, no change other than comments.

Also add commented out:

use BOOT_FLAG() in port's MD code as appropriate
as discussed on tech-kern, add new boot flags -v, -q for booting
verbosely or quietly, and corresponding AB_VERBOSE/AB_QUIET

How we ever got along without this for so long is beyond me.

The previous version could lead to an off-by-one error in the page allocation
for pv_table[] in some memory configurations.

in fdformat().
(This eliminates 1/3 of the instances of PHOLD()/PRELE() in the kernel code.)
