This changes only affects boot2; there are further loader changes

to take into account the new default of starting the first partition
after the boot blocks instead of at sector 0. If you used automatic
sizing when the first partition did not start at 0, you would get
an error that the automatically sized partition extended beyond the
end of the disk.
Note that there are probably still many more complex cases where
automatic sizing and placement will not work (e.g. non-contiguous
or out of order partitions).
ignore "no such file" errors only, which I wanted to do.
Because of this I ignored all other errors on dlopen(3) failure as well,
which isn't good.
Fix this situation by calling access(2) on library file first and ignore
only ENOENT error. This allows to report all the rest of dlopen(3) errors.

assertion it could call PKCS#5v2 with 4294967295 iterations).
Instead of failing on assertion, remind about '-p' flag.

accept NUL-terminated strings as required by RFC 2132.
This solution is not perfect as it removes the ability to send
NUL-terminated host-name options which may be required by some broken
servers. Given the current lack of an existance proof of such servers
and the fact that servers that send NUL-terminated domain names do
exist, this seems like an acceptable compromise. A discussion of these
issues can be found at:

Change communication protocol to be much more resistant on network
problems and to allow for much better performance.
Better performance is achieved by creating two connections between
ggatec and ggated one for sending the data and one for receiving it.
Every connection is handled by separeted thread, so there is no more
synchronous data flow (send and wait for response), now one threads
sends all requests and another receives the data.
Use two threads in ggatec(8):
- sendtd, which takes I/O requests from the kernel and sends them to the
ggated daemon on the other end;
- recvtd, which waits for ggated responses and forwards them to the kernel.
Use three threads in ggated(8):
- recvtd, which waits for I/O requests and puts them onto incoming queue;
- disktd, which takes requests from the incoming queue, does disk operations
and puts finished requests onto outgoing queue;
- sendtd, which takes finished requests from the outgoing queue and sends
responses back to ggatec.
Because there were major changes in communication protocol, there is no
backward compatibility, from now on, both client and server has to run
on 5.x or 6.x (or at least ggated should be from the same FreeBSD version
on which ggatec is running).
For Gbit networks some buffers need to be increased. I use those settings:
kern.ipc.maxsockbuf=16777216
net.inet.tcp.sendspace=8388608
net.inet.tcp.recvspace=8388608
and I use '-S 4194304 -R 4194304' options for both, ggatec and ggated.

include a space seperated list of domains instead of the domain of the
host. This is supported on too many platforms to break for now so,
remove validation of this option for the moment.
The correct solution longer term is to implement RFC 3397 support and
then treat domain-name options containing space seperated lists of
domains as domain-search options for backwards compatability.
