A number of small changes to make the 'save choice to disk' safer,

and re-enable it as default.

In particular:

+ re-enable the 'update' flag in the Makefile (of course!);

+ commit Warner's patch "orb $NOUPDATE,_FLAGS(%bp)"
  to avoid writing to disk in case of a timeout/default choice;

+ fix an off-by-one count in the partition scan code that would
  print the wrong name for unknown partitions;

+ unconditionally change the boot prompt to 'Boot:' instead of 'Default:'
  to make room for the extra code/checks/messages. Some of the changes
  listed below are also made to save space;

+ rearrange and fix comments for known partition types. Right now we
  explicitly recognise *BSD, Linux, FAT16 (type 6, used on many USB keys),
  NTFS (type 7), FAT32 (type 11).
  Depending on other options we also recognise Extended (type 5),
  FAT12 (type 1) and FAT16 < 32MB (type 4).

+ Add an entry "F6 PXE" when the code is built with -DPXE (which is
  a default now). Technically, F6 boots through INT18, so the prompt 'PXE'
  is a bit misleading. Unfortunately the name INT18
  is too long and does not fit in - we could use ROM perhaps.
  The reason I picked 'PXE' is that on many (I believe) new systems
  INT18 calls PXE.

Apart from the choice of the name for PXE/ROM/INT18, this should close
pending issues on the 1-sector boot0 code and we should be able to
move the code to RELENG_7 when it reopens.

No boot0cfg changes are necessary.
