Allow to specify the rslabel to use for a file system.
When a file system is mounted some heuristics are used to define
a RS label for that system. This commit allows to specify the
label to use in an optional mount argument using either
mount -o rslabel=fs_myfs or as a mount option in fstab.
This can be used to start services that later also need to be
accessed directly.
* Display an error message upon failure to mount a device.
* Handle a special case when the source device is "none"
* pass the mount options stored in fourth field of fstab
to mount(3).

various symbol referencing fixes
make weak symbol references and namespace renames references
the renamed versions.
function renaming, weak symbol references and libc namespace.h
protection interact in hairy ways and causes weak symbol references
for renamed functions to be unresolved; e.g. vfork should be an
alias for _vfork but _vfork doesn't exist because __vfork14()
exists.
this is a problem for dynamically linked executables as all symbols
have to be resolved, used or not, at link time. it was masked by
clang-compiled base system libraries but is a problem when gcc does
it.

ld.so: be more mmap()-behaviour-independent
. if the layout of virtual address regions as returned
by mmap() without a location hint changes, ld.so could
trip itself up (under minix). this change allocates
the full size it needs for every object that's loaded
so that if that succeeds, it's sure there's virtual address
space for the whole thing no matter what other bits happen
to be there already.
. this fix exposed a bug in the test; at atexit() execution
time the loaded object is unmapped, so that part of the
test is removed.

/etc/rc: use mount -a instead of manual parsing
The rc script manually parses /etc/fstab to mount all file systems.
To do that it needs /bin/sed which does not exist anymore. mount(8)
now supports the -a flag which causes it to mount all file systems
listed in /etc/fstab except for '/'. File systems marked with 'noauto'
are skipped.

Import NetBSD tools and build.sh
This commit finalizes support for cross compilation. The tools
directory are all links to the actual tools and are built on the

care of all environment settings. It's slightly adjusted for Minix.
The /usr/src/Makefile has additional targets needed for cross
compilation.

drop from segments physcopy/vircopy invocations
. sys_vircopy always uses D for both src and dst

existence of usbd we can stop it in the correct order.

further libexec generalization

memory from VM and selectively clear the ranges that don't come
from a file, leaving no uninitialized memory left for the process
to see.

process, and copying into the process; so that the libexec code
can be used from rs, vfs, and in the future, kernel (to load vm)

exec() cleanup, generalization, improvement
. make exec() callers (i.e. vfs and rs) determine the
memory layout by explicitly reserving regions using
mmap() calls on behalf of the exec()ing process,
i.e. handling all of the exec logic, thereby eliminating
all special exec() knowledge from VM.
. the new procedure is: clear the exec()ing process
first, then call third-party mmap()s to reserve memory, then
copy the executable file section contents in, all using callbacks
tailored to the caller's way of starting an executable
. i.e. no more explicit EXEC_NEWMEM-style calls in PM or VM
as with rigid 2-section arguments
. this naturally allows generalizing exec() by simply loading
all ELF sections
. drop/merge of lots of duplicate exec() code into libexec
. not copying the code sections to vfs and into the executable
again is a measurable performance improvement (about 3.3% faster
for 'make' in src/servers/)

drop aout support
justification: soon we won't be able to execute sep I&D aouts at
all (because of the vanishing segments), which was the default mode
to generate them so most binaries will be sep I&D.
this makes the vfs/rs exec() unification work simpler.
after unification, common I&D aout could be added back quite simply.
