David van Moolenbroek c58da9fbc3 Rename MINIX service(8) to minix-service(8)
IMPORTANT: this change has a docs/UPDATING entry!

This rename is unfortunately necessary because NetBSD has decided to
create its own service(8) utility, and we will want to import theirs
as well.  The two can obviously not coexist.

Also move ours from /bin to /sbin, as it is a superuser-only utility.

The eMMC driver was designed to be linked to the existing MMC/SD block device
driver (mmcblk.c).
* Mini how-to
On the BeagleBone Black, the block device files /dev/c1d* (major = 8) are free.
The driver can use /dev/c1d0.
# minix-service up /service/emmc -dev /dev/c1d0
* Programmed Input/Output
The driver does not have support for DMA.
* High capacity cards
Data address for media =< 2GB is byte address, and data address for media > 2GB
is sector (512B) address. The driver was designed to handle both address modes,
but it was tested on a 2GB card.
