gpt, disklabel64 - Add storage expansion options

* Add gpt expand directive. For example 'gpt expand /dev/da0' will
expand the gpt to fill /dev/da0. This allows the gpt to be enlarged
to fit a new, larger storage device or expanded storage and can be issued
on a live gpt if desired.

* Add disklabel64 -x and -xx features. This expands the disklabel to
fit the new enlarged slice that it resides in. If -xx is specified,
the last partition configured in the disklabel will also be enlarged.

* And we already have 'hammer2 growfs <mountpt>' to grow a live hammer2
filesystem to fit an enlarged partition.

gpt(8): "show" command support to print partition GUID

The "show" subcommand gains the "-g" option to print the partition GUID
instead of the partition type/label.

This helps to identify the GPT partition corresponding to the UUIDs
shown in "/dev/slice-by-uuid".

* Fix the fdisk -E option to no longer try to use the sysctls.

* Add trim support to gpt init (-E).

* Fix swapon -e, change option to -E to match gpt and fdisk
(-e still supported and does the same thing).

gpt - Add a new directive called 'init'

* Add a new directive called 'init'. This directive works like
gpt create except it will also create a msdos slice 0 (and newfs_msdos
it), and a "DragonFly Label64" slice 1, and
'disklabel -r -w <slice1> auto'.

* If -B is also specified, the init directive will populate the msdos
filesystem with efi/boot/bootx64.efi, and also supplies -B to the
disklabel command.

* This command does not create the boot, swap, or root filesystem
partitions in the disklabel. It is meant to do something similar
to what fdisk -IB used to do for us for legacy partitions (though
I should note that fdisk -IB didn't initialize a new disklabel). But
we do for gpt.

gpt.8: Update example and note

* don't use da8 as general disk in examples,
as it is now default for removable device

* adjust boot setup example to present defaults:
* no `-o packet' needed for bootcfg,
* kernel lives in boot/, no need for extra mv

* use preferred HAMMER label (as in installer & rconfig example)

* add suggestion for exact text to commands and break too long lines

* drop note that boot only is supported on 32 bit disklabels

Update gpt:
- note that DragonFly supports 32 slices per disk
- increase size of boot slice (slice 0 made by boot command):
increase size from 128MB til 256MB, as total size of
kernel & modules w/ .old is over 128MB and
it is a hassle to increase size of boot slice later

boot0cfg command, is used by boot command
