MFC EFI support for the installer
r264978 (nwhitehorn):
Add EFI support to the installer. This requires that the kernel provide a sysctl to determine what firmware is in use. This sysctl does not exist yet, so the following blocks are in front of the wheels: - I've provisionally called this "hw.platform" after the equivalent thing on PPC - The logic to check the sysctl is short-circuited to always choose BIOS. There's a comment in the top of the file about how to turn this off.
If IA64 acquired a boot1.efifat-like thing (probably with very few modifications), the same code could be adapted there.
r265016 (nwhitehorn):
Finish connecting up installer UEFI support. If the kernel was booted using EFI, set up the disks for an EFI system. If booted from BIOS/CSM, set up for BIOS.
r268256 (nwhitehorn):
After EFI support was added to the installer, it needed to allow boot partitions of types other than "freebsd-boot" (in particular, "efi"). This allows the removal of some nasty hacks for supporting PowerPC systems, in particular aliasing freebsd-boot to apple-boot on APM and an IBM-specific code on MBR.
This changes the installer to use the correct names, which also breaks a degeneracy in the meaning of "freebsd-boot" that allows the addition of support for some newer IBM systems that can boot from GPT in addition to MBR. Since I have no idea how to detect which those systems are, leave the default on IBM PPC systems as MBR for now.

Add installer support for CHRP/PAPR PowerPC systems that use MBR+BSD formatting, like x86, but with an additional MBR slice containing a raw boot partition.

Import bsdinstall. This is meant to be (eventually in conjunction with pc-sysinstall) a replacement for sysinstall in the 9.0 release and beyond. Currently supported platforms are sparc64, pc98, i386, amd64, powerpc, and powerpc64. Integration into the build system will occur in the coming weeks.
Merging with pc-sysinstall will use this code as a frontend, while temporarily retaining the interactive partition editor here. This work will be done in parallel with improvements on this code and release integration.
Thanks to all who have provided testing and comments!
