Log message:
Add support to installboot(8) for installing biosboot(8) and boot(8) on
softraid volumes. If installboot is run on a softraid volume, a fake
single inode FFS filesystem is constructed to contain boot(8). This is
then installed onto the softraid volume via the BIOCINSTALLBOOT ioctl.
biosboot(8) is then patched and installed onto each disk that is a member
of the softraid volume.

Joint work with otto@ who came up with the concept of constructing a fake
FFS filesystem and wrote the code to do so.

No objection from miod@
