Add a bootloader for octeon.
The firmware on OCTEON machines usually does not provide an interface for accessing devices, which has made it tricky to implement an OpenBSD bootloader. To solve this device access problem, this new loader has been built on top of a small kernel. The kernel provides all the necessary devices drivers, while most of the usual bootloader logic is in a userspace program in a ramdisk. The loader program is accompanied by a special device, octboot(4). The main purpose of this device is to implement a mechanism for loading and launching kernels. The mechanism has been inspired by Linux' kexec(2) system call. The bootloader will be enabled later when it is ready for general use. Discussed with deraadt@
