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.

Add an echo to say we're "Booting..." when the overloaded "boot" Ficl word is
executed to better differentiate between loader-specific errors and kernel-
specific errors (if ever any of either).

This type of functionality hasn't been required before the introduction of the
advanced menu system (r222417). Adding this functionality will help different-
iate errors at the loader-level such as a BTX halt caused by heap exhaustion
and errors that may be involved with executing the kernel (wrong architecture
for example). A user can learn that messages before "Booting..." are related to
the loader(8) environment and it's Forth-ilk, while those after are not
related to loader(8) -- the point that loader(8) has ``left the building''.

This patch also includes a man-page update to color.4th(8) as the color logic
moves to a lower-level (from being included by beastie.4th to being included
by loader.4th).

After noticing a delay between execution of the overloaded "boot" FICL word and
the display of text on-screen, gcooper confirmed that the introduction of a
builtin memory test (disabled by adding hw.memtest.tests="0" to loader.conf(5))
was the cause of the delay.

This patch adds an echo to produce "Booting..." when the overloaded "boot" word
is executed (this includes from the interactive command-prompt on all arches,
from the menu system on arches that run the beastie menu, and even those arches
that run the menu but disable it by setting beastie_disable="YES" in
loader.conf(5)). When loader_color="YES" in loader.conf(5), the same message is
produced but in white text on a blue background (only the letters produced have
this background -- opposed to perhaps the entire line).

Fix domain.
