This is a step towards getting the drivers ready for new config.
Clean up namespace, remove several instances of global arrays. Instead,
use a softc to carry state around. Where possible, pass a pointer to
the softc rather than a unit number.
Pointers to hardware and software constructs are now stored per port
in each instance of the softc (one softc per board) rather than indexed
by minor number.

of FIFO overflows on high baud rates.
However, doing so on all 4 ports would cost a whopping 64KB (at 4096 entries
per FIFO) of kernel memory. So, the FIFOs are now allocated at attach time
allowing the size for the keyboard and mouse ports to be reduced (to 128)
which should be adequate for the 1200 baud they use.
- properly do MSG_IN handshaking, so we can actually receive multi-byte msgs.
- do synch negotiation (now that the above works).
- handle disconnects.
There are a few trial-and-error bits at points where the docs I have are
particularly ambiguous about the state of chip and/or SCSI bus.
Things to do:
- more cleanup
- deal with MSG_OUT phase better
- keep some "config reg 3" bits per target (ie. FASTCLK and FASTSCSI).

new boot block structure, which requires an 'installboot'
program and works a lot like the NetBSD/sparc boot blocks.
bit is set. Works around the fact that the last process to have the
console open exits, the bit is cleared, and "syncing disks...", etc. is
not seen if the system is rebooted with reboot(8). Fixes PR #1455.
COMPAT_NOLABEL.
XXX One day when the world doesn't assume DEV_BSIZE bytes/sector, we'll be
able to actually use the stuff sensed from the drive, rather than a table.
