The CD now boots directly from the ISO 9660 filesystem instead of using
MBR partitioning with Minix file systems. This saves some space on the
CD and reduces memory requirements by some unknown amount as the root
ramdisk is completely eliminated.
The x86 hard drive image creation is also rewritten in the same
fashion.
The setup is modified to be more NetBSD-like (unpacking sets
tarballs instead of blindly copying the CD contents). Splitting MINIX
into sets is done in another commit due to it being a nightmare to
rebase.
Since MINIX lacks union mounts for now, a bunch of ramdisks are
generated at run-time to make parts of the filesystem writeable for the
CD. This solution isn't ideal, but it's enough for an installation CD.

Trying to boot Minix3 master on an appliance/sbc like ALIX fails, as
the service command throws an error. Making the rc script more robust
solves it.

- Adding missing fields for PCI device lookup
- Adding the domain (for now set to zero) as part of the slot name

The NetBSD version is seriously broken--it is unable to match lines
against an empty pattern--and appears to be unmaintained.
The new version is the latest OpenBSD grep, with a number of MINIX-
specific changes marked as such, and an additional number of
(signed/unsigned, const) fixes to pass compilation.
Since this is not NetBSD code, move back the entire thing into
minix/usr.bin.

. the minix init started rc with the 'bootargs' variable.
this can now be cleanly passed to rc by executing sysenv
from the ramdisk rc script.

/etc/profile enables by default tabcompletion, as well as emacs mode,
in order to keep the old MINIX ash behavior.
Note: The shell now refuses to source a script without a relative or
absolute path.
This means:
- '. myscript.sh' fails, while
- '. ./myscript.sh' succeeds

. get rid of includes in libcompat_minix:
. move configfile.h to minix/include/
. all others are unneeded as they point to other files
. merge the .c files with libc

Changes provoked by debugging / making 'PM: INIT died' error debuggable.
This was caused (in one instance) by a missing /dev/console (and everything
else) on the boot time ramdisk.
. sanity-check against this case by checking for console
. PM: print init stacktrace and exit status when init dies
. eliminate some explicitly invoked ${MAKE}s and a rm -rf in
Makefiles, causing race conditions; use explicit ordering (.WAIT)
instead, moving some of the burden of dependencies of partial builds
to the user. On the plus side, generate ramdisk just once.
. make mkfs.mfs fail as soon as it sees an error missing file in
the proto file. - except for EACCES on minix native for the mfs
test. also fix some fmt warnings.
. init: include debug info in executable

This is an attempt at simplifying the Makefile, by specifying the home
directory of every utility, instead of trying to guess depending on some
variable.
While this is a bit more verbose, this simplifies the logic. This also makes
it simpler to add / remove programs from the ramdisk.

This concerns all services, a.k.a drivers, filesystem drivers, network
(inet, lwip, uds) servers, and the system servers.
