loader: provide a features table for binary compatibility advertisement

liblua now provides a loader.has_feature() function to probe the loader
binary for features advertised. name => desc mappings are provided in
loader.features to get a list of all of the features loader *can*
support. core.hasFeature is provided as a shim to loader.has_feature
so that individual consumers don't need to think about the logic of the
loader module not providing has_feature; we know that means the feature
isn't enabled.

The first consumer of this will be EARLY_ACPI to advertise that the
loader binary probes for ACPI presence before the interpreter has
started, so that we know whether we can trust the presence of acpi.rsdp
as relatively authoritative. In general, it's intended to be used to
avoid breaking new scripts on older loaders within reason.

This will be used in lua as `core.hasFeature("EARLY_ACPI")`, while the
C bits of loader will `feature_enable(FEATURE_EARLY_ACPI)`.

As described previously, loader.lua_path is absolute path where scripts are

difficult to coordinate loader aborts from local.lua -- we do not need the
flexibility of require(), and local.lua is in-fact not a 'module-like' file
as we will not be referencing anything from it.

lualoader: Expose loader.parse and add cli_execute_unparsed

This will be used for scenarios where the command to execute is coming in
via the environment (from, for example, loader.conf(5)) and is thus not
necessarily trusted.

cli_execute_unparsed will immediately be used for handling
module_{before,after,error} as well as menu_timeout_command. We still want
to offer these variables the ability to execute Lua-intercepted loader
commands, but we don't want them to be able to execute arbitrary Lua.

This will be used to implement menu_timeout_command, among other things,
which *should* be used to execute basic loader commands independent of the
chosen interpreter.

liblua: Use putc instead of printf for printc

printc does not need the features or the overhead of printf. It does not

Instead, use putc directly. This pipes the string through in its entirety as
a series of 'unsigned char's, generally straight to the console emulator.

Add Lua as a scripting langauge to /boot/loader

liblua glues the lua run time into the boot loader. It implements all
the runtime routines that lua expects. In addition, it has a few
standard 'C' headers that nueter various aspects of the LUA build that
are too specific to lua to be in libsa. Many refinements from the
original code to improve implementation and the number of included lua
libraries. Use int64_t for lua_Number. Have "/boot/lua" be the default
module path. Numerous cleanups from the original GSoC project,
including hacking libsa to allow lua to be built with only one change
outside luaconf.h.

Add the final bit of lua glue to bring in liblua and plug into the
multiple interpreter framework, previously committed.

Add LOADER_LUA option, currently off by default.

Presently, this is an experimental option. One must opt-in to using
this by defining WITH_LOADER_LUA and WITHOUT_FORTH. It's been
lightly tested, so keep a backup copy of your old loader handy.
The menu code, coming in the next commit, hasn't been exhaustively
tested. A LUA boot loader is 60k larger than a FORTH one, which is
80k larger than a no-interpreter one. Subtle changes in size
may tip things past some subtle limit (the binary is ~430k now
when built with LUA). A future version may offer coexistance.

Bump FreeBSD version to 1200058 to mark the milestone.
