Roman Bogorodskiy b66fda0a74 bhyve: Add CPU topology support
Recently, bhyve started supporting specifying guest CPU topology.
It looks this way:

  bhyve -c cpus=C,sockets=S,cores=C,threads=T ...

The old behaviour was bhyve -c C, where C is a number of vCPUs, is
still supported.

So if we have CPU topology in the domain XML, use the new syntax,
otherwise keep the old behaviour.

Also, document this feature in the bhyve driver page.

Daniel P. Berrange b1c81567c7 docs: switch to using HTML5 doctype declaration
The HTML5 doctype is simply

  <!DOCTYPE html>

no DTD is present because HTML5 is no longer defined as an
extension of SGML.

XSL has no way to natively output a doctype without a public
or system identifier, so we have to use an <xsl:text> hack
instead.

Michal Privoznik 5364d09433 drvbhyve.html.in: Kill useless spaces in <pre/>
The <pre/> section is rendered as-is on the page. That is, if all
the lines are prefixed with 4 spaces the rendered page will also
have them. Problem is if we put a box around such <pre/> because
the content might not fix into it.

Conrad Meyer cdbb21bc59 drvbhyve: Use boot-order for grub-bhyve boot device
Rather than just picking the first CD (or failing that, HDD) we come
across, if the user has picked a boot device ordering with <boot
order=''>, respect that (and just try to boot the lowest-index device).

Adds two sets of tests to bhyve2xmlargv; 'grub-bootorder' shows that we
pick a user-specified device over the first device in the domain;
'grub-bootorder2' shows that we pick the first (lowest index) device.

Conrad Meyer 17722c169c bhyve: Support /domain/bootloader configuration for non-FreeBSD guests.
We still default to bhyveloader(1) if no explicit bootloader
configuration is supplied in the domain.

If the /domain/bootloader looks like grub-bhyve and the user doesn't
supply /domain/bootloader_args, we make an intelligent guess and try
chainloading the first partition on the disk (or a CD if one exists,
under the assumption that for a VM a CD is likely an install source).

Caveat: Assumes the HDD boots from the msdos1 partition. I think this is
a pretty reasonable assumption for a VM. (DrvBhyve with Bhyveload
already assumes that the first disk should be booted.)

I've tested both HDD and CD boot and they seem to work.
