Create two partitions in the existing space at the beginning of the
image (8MB). These are intended to hold u-boot SPL and u-boot proper.
The partition types selected are compatible with SiFive boards, e.g. the
HiFive Unmatched. They can easily be overridden for a platform that uses
the same scheme but different partition types, e.g. the StarFive
VisionFive v2. Firmware is not actually installed, this too is left for
the user.
It is not as simple to create the firmware partitions after the fact,
e.g. with partition indices 3 and 4. It is a shortcoming of current day
u-boot that the SPL loader looks for a specific partition index, rather
than the partition type, meaning that we will fail to boot if partition
2 doesn't contain u-boot.
Thus, our GENERICSD images become more generically usable with current
RISC-V hardware/firmware platforms.

The stable/13 snapshot this week failed to build the riscv GENERICSD
image because it ran out of space. Checking main and stable/14
snapshots, they are also low on space, around 100% or more of
capacity. Increase them all from 5 GB to 6 GB. Note, this is the
only riscv image configuration.

BSD stat and GNU stat differ significantly when it comes to using a
custom format string, both in the option name and in the format string
itself. Handle both here (assuming Linux means GNU stat rather than BSD
stat).

This requires two sets of changes. Firstly, for non-FreeBSD, we do not
know where tools are in PATH (and it is likely that some are not in
system directories and have been built as bootstrap tools during the
build), so we should leave PATH alone and trust the user. Secondly,
makefs needs a master.passwd for building images from a METALOG file, so
pass the directory in the image tree to makefs's -N option in order to
pick up a valid FreeBSD master.passwd; this is unnecessary on FreeBSD
(except in the edge case of building an image that refers to users or
groups not present in the host's database, which is unlikely but
technically possible) but harmless so can be done unconditionally.

This requires a bunch of METALOG mangling to include the files we inject
into the tree. The mkisoimages.sh and make-memstick.sh scripts are now
called with the current directory inside the tree so that the relative
paths in the METALOG match up with the current directory. The scripts do
not require this when not using a METALOG, but for simplicity we always
do so. The Makefile mangles the real METALOG created from the install,
as those files are shared across all uses of the tree, but the shell
scripts create a temporary copy of the METALOG that they mangle as their
tree modifications are specific to that image. We also need to pass -D
to makefs to turn any duplicate METALOG entry errors into warnings, as
we have many (harmless) instances of those.
Whilst dvd1.iso should work, the !NOPKG code will need more work to
support this.
All media will also lack mergemaster and etcupdate trees, since more
work is needed to add -DNO_ROOT modes to them. Users of install media
built this way will have to manually bootstrap them.

Currently the current directory is the parent of the rootfs directory,
but this will change in order to support NO_ROOT builds that use a
metalog manifest, since those need to have the current directory be the
rootfs itself in order for the relative paths to be correct, and we do
not want the non-METALOG case (which passes the directory to makefs) to
pick up leftover temporary .img files from a previous failed build.

Following 7b1d1a1658, the structure
for the reldoc target has significantly changed as result of the
ASCIIDoctor/Hugo migration. As the release notes related files
on the installation medium are inherently out of date, purge them
entirely.

Add two release flavors for RISC-V. First, the traditional "big-iron"
images, capable of generating distribution sets and VM images. Installer
images won't be built yet, but can be trivially enabled in the future
with the addition of riscv/make-memstick.sh.
Second, a GENERICSD embedded image. I've opted for this instead of
board-specific SD card images as it allows users to just dd the u-boot
they want. The RISC-V hardware ecosystem is still young, so a
configuration for e.g. the new PolarFire SoC Icicle Kit would likely see
very few users.
