boot - Add a ton of features to the boot loader & adjust default menu
* Add conditionals ifset ifexists else elseifexists and endif
* Conditionalize dloader.menu to only present menu options for which
the related kernels are present in /boot.
* Set the default kernel to one of:
kernel, kernel.GENERIC, kernel.GENERIC_SMP, kernel.X86_64_GENERIC,
or kernel.X86_64_GENERIC_SMP. The first one in the list found becomes
the default.
* If ${default_kernel}_SMP is available supply a menu option to change
the default to that kernel, aka UP->SMP
* If kernel.X86_64_GENERIC[_SMP] is available and the current default is
not the same supply menu options to change the default to the 64-bit
UP or SMP kernel.
Note however that for this to work the related boot kernel directory
had better have a loader.conf.local in it that points the root mount
to a 64-bit root 'cause 64-bit kernels can't run 32 bit binaries yet.
* Adjust the menu item execution code to copy the items before executing
them, allowing recursive menu execution. The recursive menu feature
is a bit of a hack right now however.
* NOTE: the optcd for people ESCaping into the boot prompt was moved
to dloader.rc, when updating you may have to manually reinstall that
file to get the functionality.
