Add support from GE Intelligent Platform Cavium Octeon boards. Add options OCTEON_VENDOR_GEFES to enable support for these boards, to match changes that GE publishes to the Octeon Simple Executive. Since board types overlap with other boards, it is unlikely that we will properly boot on other Octeon boards with OCTEON_VENDOR_GEFES enabled. Tested extensively on the WANIC 6354, but I retained support for all the other models. Some features need changes in the base kernel, and those are in progress.

Merge the Cavium Octeon SDK 2.3.0 Simple Executive code and update FreeBSD to make use of it where possible.
This primarily brings in support for newer hardware, and FreeBSD is not yet able to support the abundance of IRQs on new hardware and many features in the Ethernet driver.
Because of the changes to IRQs in the Simple Executive, we have to maintain our own list of Octeon IRQs now, which probably can be pared-down and be specific to the CIU interrupt unit soon, and when other interrupt mechanisms are added they can maintain their own definitions.
Remove unmasking of interrupts from within the UART device now that the function used is no longer present in the Simple Executive. The unmasking seems to have been gratuitous as this is more properly handled by the buses above the UART device, and seems to work on that basis.
