Document support for booting from RAID 1C on sparc64
The bootloader (ofwboot) got support some time ago, but installboot(8) had
to be fixed as well for multi-chunk volumes (1C requires at least two).
As of today, the latest sparc64 install72.img can perform a default install
onto a passphrase-protected 1C volume across four chunk disks, resulting in
a bootable system without requiring manual invervention, just like amd64.
