installboot(8): Adjustments for EFI platforms

Reduce #ifdef'ing within the control logic to make it clearer that there
are no essential differences in behaviour between the platforms.

Make installboot(8) write startup.nsh to enable simpler and more consistent
code in install.md.

Add missing mode argument to open(2) with O_CREAT.

snprintf/vsnprintf return < 0 on error, rather than -1.

avoid freeing r twice in error case; OK otto@

installboot: adapt fileprefix() to future realpath(3) behavior

This was relying on realpath(3) working for paths that don't exist
yet, which will be changing soon.

Use a combination of dirname(3), realpath(3), and basename(3) to
construct a sane path while still ensuring that the target directory
exists.

Backout last. Breaks sparc64, amoung other dubiousness.

Check that the disk specified on the command line is the disk that
files are copied to. Error out with 'cross-device install' if not.

Refactor fileprefix() and filecopy() to use warn() instead of err()
to display error message, and to return error indications (NULL and
-1 respectively). Use the error indications in write_efisystem()
to unwind in the face of more error conditions. In other cases just
exit(1) to emulation current behaviour.

Change the installboot file copying process so that it carefully
overwrites the existing file, before truncating it to the final length.
This means that we will keep the same inode and potentially retain the
same disk data block allocation between runs.

This will aid users who multiboot since it makes it less likely that the
PBR will change, although as before, there is no guarantee. Obviously if
the second stage boot loader grows or shrinks then the PBR will change
regardless.

When copying files do it in 512 byte blocks so that we're less likely to
hit file system allocation issues on install media.

Add a -r flag that allows for the mount point of the root filesystem to be
specified. This is primarily for use by the installer and defaults to /.
