2fe8fb192f Full switch to clang/ELF. Drop ack. Simplify.
There is important information about booting non-ack images in
docs/UPDATING. ack/aout-format images can't be built any more, and
booting clang/ELF-format ones is a little different. Updating to the
new boot monitor is recommended.

Changes in this commit:

	. drop boot monitor -> allowing dropping ack support
	. facility to copy ELF boot files to /boot so that old boot monitor
	  can still boot fairly easily, see UPDATING
	. no more ack-format libraries -> single-case libraries
	. some cleanup of OBJECT_FMT, COMPILER_TYPE, etc cases
	. drop several ack toolchain commands, but not all support
	  commands (e.g. aal is gone but acksize is not yet).
	. a few libc files moved to netbsd libc dir
	. new /bin/date as minix date used code in libc/
	. test compile fix
	. harmonize includes
	. /usr/lib is no longer special: without ack, /usr/lib plays no
	  kind of special bootstrapping role any more and bootstrapping
	  is done exclusively through packages, so releases depend even
	  less on the state of the machine making them now.
	. rename nbsd_lib* to lib*
	. reduce mtree

f984dbba70 increase system-wide filename limit to 255
. move mfs-specific struct, constants to mfs/, so
	  mfs-specific, on-disk format structs and consts are
	  fully isolated from generic structs and functions
	. removes de and readfs utils

42a2c1a03a Increase max number of open files to 255 (more should be possible but does not seem necessary for now) 2010-08-04 13:35:19 +00:00

0b8e20c89e Changes to the include files in order to make cross-compilation possible.
- The primary reason is that mkfs and installboot need to run natively during
  the cross compilation (host and target versions are compiled). There is a
  collision of include files though. E.g. a.out.h is very minix-specific.
  Therefore some files we moved and replaced by stubs that include the original
  file if compiling on or for Minix :
  
  include/a.out.h -> include/minix/a.out.h
  include/sys/dir.h -> include/minix/dir.h
  include/dirent.h -> include/minix/dirent.h
  include/sys/types.h -> include/minix/types.h

- This does not break any native compilation on Minix. Other headers that were
  including the original files are changed according to include directly the
  new, minix specific location not to pick up the host system includes while
  cross-compiling.

- role of this patch is to make rebasing of the build branch simpler until the
  new build system is merged
