Fixes: 6c3e01bf85 "release: Randomize powerpc boot block file name"
MFC after: 3 days
With parallel builds enabled, we can end up building multiple ISOs at
once, which causes problems if mkisoimages.sh uses a consistent file
name "/tmp/hfs-boot-block".

This requires two sets of changes. Firstly, for non-FreeBSD, we do not
know where tools are in PATH (and it is likely that some are not in
system directories and have been built as bootstrap tools during the
build), so we should leave PATH alone and trust the user. Secondly,
makefs needs a master.passwd for building images from a METALOG file, so
pass the directory in the image tree to makefs's -N option in order to
pick up a valid FreeBSD master.passwd; this is unnecessary on FreeBSD
(except in the edge case of building an image that refers to users or
groups not present in the host's database, which is unlikely but
technically possible) but harmless so can be done unconditionally.

This requires a bunch of METALOG mangling to include the files we inject
into the tree. The mkisoimages.sh and make-memstick.sh scripts are now
called with the current directory inside the tree so that the relative
paths in the METALOG match up with the current directory. The scripts do
not require this when not using a METALOG, but for simplicity we always
do so. The Makefile mangles the real METALOG created from the install,
as those files are shared across all uses of the tree, but the shell
scripts create a temporary copy of the METALOG that they mangle as their
tree modifications are specific to that image. We also need to pass -D
to makefs to turn any duplicate METALOG entry errors into warnings, as
we have many (harmless) instances of those.
Whilst dvd1.iso should work, the !NOPKG code will need more work to
support this.
All media will also lack mergemaster and etcupdate trees, since more
work is needed to add -DNO_ROOT modes to them. Users of install media
built this way will have to manually bootstrap them.

These images only ever worked on Apple Powermacs, which are now a very
old platform, and did so only for a very loose definition of "worked"
(they booted on a small subset of supported machines). Moreover, all
the machines they *did* boot on also would boot from a memstick made
by dd'ing an CD image to a flash drive. Since a flash drive prepared
in this way would also boot all the newer systems we support, the
memstick images were strictly less functional than the CD images, even
for booting from memory sticks.

There's not much practical difference as far as install media is
concerned but newfs creates UFSv2 by default and it is sensible to use
the contemporary UFS version.
I also intend to change makefs to create UFSv2 by default (to match
newfs) so we'll want make-memstick.sh to be explicit, rather than
relying on the host tool's default.

This Makefile relies on Makefile.fat providing the correct value for
BOOT1_MAXSIZE and BOOT1_OFFSET. Since BOOT1_OFFSET had no default value
here the build would already fail if Makefile.fat did not provide
correct values.

At present, GENERIC is still required, and installed by default.

complains about "Malformed numbers" while unpacking the dists and
what winds up on the disk isn't correct. Use this as an opportunity
to switch over to bsdcpio since at this point we don't even build
and install the gnu cpio by default. Note sysinstall needed to be
tweaked a bit (dropping tape block size setting) because it seems
bsdcpio doesn't do anything with block sizes, at least as far as
reading from archives goes. That wasn't really a problem since
installations from tape have been broken for a while and the rest
of sysinstall's tape support code will be removed shortly.
