Add a kernel crypto driver using assembly routines from OpenSSL.

Currently, this supports SHA1 and SHA2-{224,256,384,512} both as plain
hashes and in HMAC mode on both amd64 and i386. It uses the SHA
intrinsics when present similar to aesni(4), but uses SSE/AVX
instructions when they are not.

Note that some files from OpenSSL that normally wrap the assembly
routines have been adapted to export methods usable by 'struct
auth_xform' as is used by existing software crypto routines.

Remove APM BIOS support

APM BIOS was relevant only to early laptops (approximately P166 or
P200 and slower). These have not been relevant for a long time, and
this code has been untested for a long time (as far as I can
tell). The APM compat code in ACPI and the apm(8) command is not being
retired. Both of these items are still in use (apm(8) is more
scriptable than the replacement acpiconf, for the most part). This has
been commented out of i386 GENERIC since 2002. This code is not
relevant to any other port.

Use envvar rather than nonstandard hint. lines

The NOTES files have a bunch of hint lines that are removed when
generating LINT. However, we can achieve the same effect by prepending
each of the lines with 'envvar' so the NOTES files become standard
config(8) files. No functional changes as the sed script to generate
the LINT files filters these either way.

add superio driver

The goal of this driver is consolidate information about SuperIO chips
and to provide for peaceful coexistence of drivers that need to access
SuperIO configuration registers.

While SuperIO chips can host various functions most of them are
discoverable and accessible without any knowledge of the SuperIO.
Examples are: keyboard and mouse controllers, UARTs, floppy disk
controllers. SuperIO-s also provide non-standard functions such as
GPIO, watchdog timers and hardware monitoring. Such functions do
require drivers with a knowledge of a specific SuperIO.

At this time the driver supports a number of ITE and Nuvoton (fka
Winbond) SuperIO chips.
There is a single driver for all devices. So, I have not done the usual
split between the hardware driver and the bus functionality. Although,
superio does act as a bus for devices that represent known non-standard
functions of a SuperIO chip. The bus provides enumeration of child
devices based on the hardcoded knowledge of such functions. The
knowledge as extracted from datasheets and other drivers.
As there is a single driver, I have not defined a kobj interface for it.
So, its interface is currently made of simple functions.
I think that we can the flexibility (and complications) when we actually
need it.

I am planning to convert nctgpio and wbwd to superio bus very soon.
Also, I am working on itwd driver (watchdog in ITE SuperIO-s).
Additionally, there is ithwm driver based on the reverted sensors
import, but I am not sure how to integrate it given that we still lack
any sensors interface.
