loader: always install help files

Address two issues with current help file logic:

The existing condition prevents the common help file from being
installed when there are no additional help files defined. This results
in no loader.help on EFI platforms, for example.

Second, due to the fact that we build and install multiple loader types,
each successive install will clobber the previous loader.help. The
result is that we could lose type-specific commands, or possibly list
them in loaders that do not have such commands.

Instead, give each loader type a uniquely named help file. The EFI
loader will look for /boot/loader.help.efi, userboot will look for
/boot/loader.help.userboot, etc. The interpreter variant has no effect
on which help file is loaded.

This leaves the old /boot/loader.help unused.

Some credit for the final approach goes to Mathieu <sigsys@gmail.com>
for their version of the fix in https://reviews.freebsd.org/D22951.

stand: share bootinfo.c between EFI and KBOOT

Connect efi's bootinfo.c to the kboot build, and adjust to use
the kboot specific routines.

The getrootmount() call is independent of EFI. Remove ifdefs so it's
called for kboot too.

The differences between the kboot and efi bootinfo.c files are now tiny.
This could use some more refactoring, but this is a working checkpoint.

Add hostfs for the Linux environment. We can't use the userboot one
that's kinda similar because the Linux system calls we have in kboot are

stand/kboot: Add note about why we use MACHINE_ARCH here

Normally in the boot loader, we key off of MACHINE since that specifies
the kernel and the loader is very tuned to each type of MACHINE in
general. In this case, however, we're producing a Linux binary, with
Linux system calls encoded in it. These align better along the
MACHINE_ARCH axis of FreeBSD. For PowerPC the system calls are radically
different for each of our MACHINE_ARCHes, with only powerpc64 and
powerpc64le sharing the same numbers and memory layout. The same was
true about mips when it was in the tree. 32-bit arm uses the same
layout, however, for both armv6 and armv7 ports: that can be easily
shared in the unlikely event we support that in the future.

kboot: add minmalist init functionality

It is desirable to run kboot as the first program in some LinuxBoot
environments. This is the traditional "pid 1" or "init" program. When
running as pid 1. rovide a minimal environment based on what sysvinit,
u-root, initramfs-tools and other like projects do. We mount /dev, /sys,
/proc, make symlinks from /dev/fd to /dev/proc, and create /tmp, /run,
and /var. We also setup stdin/out/err to the console, set the tty
characteristics of same and block the appropriate signals.

This is indended as an environment that never does a fork/exec. If
that's required, the process groups, session leaders and all things
POSIX terminal handlers will need to be added.

Unlike the general purpose linux projects in this area, no attempt is
made to support very old kernels.

When not pid 1, we skip all of the above.
