I've started working on manual pages for the zfs boot chain.

Many thanks to Warren Block for the initial review and many fixes.
One fix for the gptzfsboot man page would be to mention that
gptzfsboot is installed into a GPT partition of type freebsd-boot, and
that the -i 1 refers to the GPT index for this partition.
We are missing that from the gptboot.8 page also.
gptzfsboot is installed in a freebsd-boot partition, usually the
first partition on the disk. A ``protective MBR'' (see gpart(8)) is
typically used in combination with gptzfsboot.
To install gptzfsboot on the ada0 drive:
gpart bootcode -b /boot/pmbr -p /boot/gptzfsboot -i 1 ada0
