produces corrupted binaries when the link_set_* sections extend into another

The kernel's bcopy (actually a wrapper around memcpy) is not guaranteed to
handle overlapping regions, even though the old ARM version did.
This fixes a problem where the kernel reported more available memory
than actually existed.
<sys/bootblock.h>:
* Added definitions for the Master Boot Record (MBR) used by
a variety of systems (primarily i386), including the format
of the BIOS Parameter Block (BPB).
This information was cribbed from a variety of sources
including <sys/disklabel_mbr.h> which this is a superset of.
As part of this, some data structure elements and #defines
were renamed to be more "namespace friendly" and consistent
with other bootblocks and MBR documentation.
Update all uses of the old names to the new names.
<sys/disklabel_mbr.h>:
* Deprecated in favor of <sys/bootblock.h> (the latter is more
"host tool" friendly).
amd64 & i386:
* Renamed /usr/mdec/bootxx_dosfs to /usr/mdec/bootxx_msdos, to
be consistent with the naming convention of the msdosfs tools.
* Removed /usr/mdec/bootxx_ufs, as it's equivalent to bootxx_ffsv1
and it's confusing to have two functionally equivalent bootblocks,
especially given that "ufs" has multiple meanings (it could be
a synonym for "ffs", or the group of ffs/lfs/ext2fs file systems).
* Rework pbr.S (the first sector of bootxx_*):
+ Ensure that BPB (bytes 11..89) and the partition table
(bytes 446..509) do not contain code.
+ Add support for booting from FAT partitions if BOOT_FROM_FAT
is defined. (Only set for bootxx_msdos).
+ Remove "dummy" partition 3; if people want to installboot(8)
these to the start of the disk they can use fdisk(8) to
create a real MBR partition table...
+ Compile with TERSE_ERROR so it fits because of the above.
Whilst this is less user friendly, I feel it's important
to have a valid partition table and BPB in the MBR/PBR.
* Renamed /usr/mdec/biosboot to /usr/mdec/boot, to be consistent
with other platforms.
* Enable SUPPORT_DOSFS in /usr/mdec/boot (stage2), so that
we can boot off FAT partitions.
* Crank version of /usr/mdec/boot to 3.1, and fix some of the other
entries in the version file.
installboot(8) (i386):
* Read the existing MBR of the filesystem and retain the BIOS
Parameter Block (BPB) in bytes 11..89 and the MBR partition
table in bytes 446..509. (Previously installboot(8) would
trash those two sections of the MBR.)
mbrlabel(8):
* Use sys/lib/libkern/xlat_mbr_fstype.c instead of homegrown code
to map the MBR partition type to the NetBSD disklabel type.
Test built "make release" for i386, and new bootblocks verified to work
(even off FAT!).

Also in the ARM32_PMAP_NEW case, reclaim the USPACE-bytes of wasted space
at the top of the user address that hasn't been needed for a very very
long time.
* Define a new "MMU type", ARM_MMU_SA1. While the SA-1's MMU is basically
compatible with the generic, the SA-1 cache does not have a write-through
mode, and it is useful to know have an indication of this.
* Add a new PMAP_NEEDS_PTE_SYNC indicator, and try to evaluate it at
compile time. We evaluate it like so:
- If SA-1-style MMU is the only type configured -> 1
- If SA-1-style MMU is not configured -> 0
- Otherwise, defer to a run-time variable.
If PMAP_NEEDS_PTE_SYNC might evaluate to true (SA-1 only or run-time
check), then we also define PMAP_INCLUDE_PTE_SYNC so that e.g. assembly
code can include the necessary run-time support. PMAP_INCLUDE_PTE_SYNC
largely replaces the ARM32_PMAP_NEEDS_PTE_SYNC manual setting Steve
included with the original new pmap.
* In the new pmap, make pmap_pte_init_generic() check to see if the CPU
has a write-back cache. If so, init the PT cache mode to C=1,B=0 to get
write-through mode. Otherwise, init the PT cache mode to C=1,B=1.
* Add a new pmap_pte_init_arm8(). Old pmap, same as generic. New pmap,
sets page table cacheability to 0 (ARM8 has a write-back cache, but
flushing it is quite expensive).
* In the new pmap, make pmap_pte_init_arm9() reset the PT cache mode to
C=1,B=0, since the write-back check in generic gets it wrong for ARM9,
since we use write-through mode all the time on ARM9 right now. (What
this really tells me is that the test for write-through cache is less
than perfect, but we can fix that later.)
* Add a new pmap_pte_init_sa1(). Old pmap, same as generic. New pmap,
does generic initialization, then resets page table cache mode to
C=1,B=1, since C=1,B=0 does not produce write-through on the SA-1.
cd ${KERNSRCDIR}/${KERNARCHDIR}/compile && ${PRINTOBJDIR}
This is far simpler than the previous system, and more robust with
objdirs built via BSDOBJDIR.
The previous method of finding KERNOBJDIR when using BSDOBJDIR by
referencing _SRC_TOP_OBJ_ from another directory was extremely
fragile due to the depth first tree walk by <bsd.subdir.mk>, and
the caching of _SRC_TOP_OBJ_ (with MAKEOVERRIDES) which would be
empty on the *first* pass to create fresh objdirs.
This change requires adding sys/arch/*/compile/Makefile to create
the objdir in that directory, and descending into arch/*/compile
from arch/*/Makefile. Remove the now-unnecessary .keep_me files
whilst here.

This merge changes the device switch tables from static array to
dynamically generated by config(8).
- All device switches is defined as a constant structure in device drivers.
- The new grammer ``device-major'' is introduced to ``files''.
device-major <prefix> char <num> [block <num>] [<rules>]
- All device major numbers must be listed up in port dependent majors.<arch>
by using this grammer.
- Added the new naming convention.
The name of the device switch must be <prefix>_[bc]devsw for auto-generation
of device switch tables.
- The backward compatibility of loading block/character device
switch by LKM framework is broken. This is necessary to convert
from block/character device major to device name in runtime and vice versa.
- The restriction to assign device major by LKM is completely removed.
We don't need to reserve LKM entries for dynamic loading of device switch.
- In compile time, device major numbers list is packed into the kernel and
the LKM framework will refer it to assign device major number dynamically.
