Since the introduction of SVN r244048 and [follow-up] r244089, it is now
safe to build upon ``boot_serial?'' functionality to make safer UI choices.

Fix a regression caused by SVN r222417.

Prior to r222417, setting `password' in loader.conf(5) did not prevent boot
but instead only prevented changes to boot options by prompting for password
if autoboot failed or the user interrupted the countdown sequence.
After r222417 the same machine with `password' set in loader.conf(5) would no
longer boot without _always_ entering the password.

This patch restores the old (8.x and older) functionality for password in
loader.conf(5) while adding a new bootlock_password feature to replace the
edge-case should anybody desire the regressed functionality (HINT: great for
PXE servers and/or private distributions).

loader.conf(5) was updated to be more clear with-respect to password setting
(previous text was misleading).

Documentation (loader.conf(5) and check-password.4th(8)) has been updated to
include notes on the new bootlock_password setting.

Special thanks to Alex Verbod for bringing this to my attention and helping to
refine the loader.conf(5) text.

-mdoc sweep.

Catch up with loader_color -> loader_logo and document beastie_disable.

Add a "comconsole_speed" loader variable that can be used to change
the serial console speed (i386 and amd64 only). If the previous
stage boot loader requested a serial console (RB_SERIAL or RB_MULTIPLE)
then the default speed is determined from the current serial port
speed. Otherwise it is set to 9600 or the value of BOOT_COMCONSOLE_SPEED
at compile time.

This makes it possible to set the serial port speed once in
/boot.config and the setting will propagate to boot2, loader and
the kernel serial console.

Document "loader_color" variable.

Fix hw.acpi.os_name by renaming it to hw.acpi.osname. The "_name" suffix
is reserved by the loader, and thus any tunable name with that suffix will
be silently discarded.

develop so many bumps on the head after banging it against the wall.
