gpart: More nuance for GPT support

A careful reading of the GPT standard shows that one may have fewer than
128 entries in your GPT table. While the standard requires that we
reserve enough space (32 512-byte-LBAs or 4 4096-byte-LBAs), it also
explicitly allows one to specify fewer actual partitions (since that
controls what is in the CRC). It requires that the first LBA to be 32
(512 sectors) or 6 (4k sectors) or larger. That requirement is not
enforced (it's not listed as one of validation criteria for the GPT).
We should likely do so in the future.

To that end, allow a default number of entries to use (defent) on
creation to be different (larger) than the minimum number of legal
entries. For gpt, these numbers work out to 128 and 1 respectively. For
all the others, make minent == defent so this is a nop for those
partitioning schemes.

Make MAXPHYS tunable. Bump MAXPHYS to 1M.

Replace MAXPHYS by runtime variable maxphys. It is initialized from
MAXPHYS by default, but can be also adjusted with the tunable kern.maxphys.

Make b_pages[] array in struct buf flexible. Size b_pages[] for buffer
cache buffers exactly to atop(maxbcachebuf) (currently it is sized to
atop(MAXPHYS)), and b_pages[] for pbufs is sized to atop(maxphys) + 1.
The +1 for pbufs allow several pbuf consumers, among them vmapbuf(),
to use unaligned buffers still sized to maxphys, esp. when such
buffers come from userspace (*). Overall, we save significant amount
of otherwise wasted memory in b_pages[] for buffer cache buffers,
while bumping MAXPHYS to desired high value.

Eliminate all direct uses of the MAXPHYS constant in kernel and driver
sources, except a place which initialize maxphys. Some random (and
arguably weird) uses of MAXPHYS, e.g. in linuxolator, are converted
straight. Some drivers, which use MAXPHYS to size embeded structures,
get private MAXPHYS-like constant; their convertion is out of scope
for this work.

Annotate geom modules with MODULE_VERSION

GEOM ELI may double ask the password during boot. Once at loader time, and
once at init time.

This happens due a module loading bug. By default GEOM ELI caches the
password in the kernel, but without the MODULE_VERSION annotation, the
kernel loads over the kernel module, even if the GEOM ELI was compiled into
the kernel. In this case, the newly loaded module
purges/invalidates/overwrites the GEOM ELI's password cache, which causes
the double asking.

MFC Note: There's a pc98 component to the original submission that is
omitted here due to pc98 removal in head. This part will need to be revived

sys/geom: adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

After EFI support was added to the installer, it needed to allow boot
partitions of types other than "freebsd-boot" (in particular, "efi").
This allows the removal of some nasty hacks for supporting PowerPC systems,
in particular aliasing freebsd-boot to apple-boot on APM and an IBM-specific
code on MBR.

This changes the installer to use the correct names, which also breaks a
degeneracy in the meaning of "freebsd-boot" that allows the addition
of support for some newer IBM systems that can boot from GPT in addition to
MBR. Since I have no idea how to detect which those systems are, leave
the default on IBM PPC systems as MBR for now.
