* A series of changes tested together as a whole:dteske2013-11-081-0/+12

NB: docsinstall is still using pkg(8) after this change. + Add additional debug output for dhclient/rtsol/wpa_cliscan + Display script errors in a textbox rather than just on stdout + Update many coments. + Add new f_show_err() API call (like f_show_msg but changes the dialog title to "Error")(see bsdconfig's `common.subr'). + Add new f_eval_catch() API call for executing a command via eval but not before logging the command to debug. Several example cases documented in API header for function in bsdconfig's `common.subr'. + Fix dialog auto-sizing when launched as an rvalue to a pipe for indirected scripts (previously would default to 24x80 sizing in this case, now it can autosize to full size even when in a pipe chain). + Fix bug in f_snprintf if $format argument began with "-"; printf would misinterpret as a flag. (this is in bsdcofig's `strings.subr'). + Add accompanying f_sprintf() and f_vsprintf() to go along with already existing f_snprintf() and f_vsnprintf() (see bsdconfig's `strings.subr'). + Remove some unnecessary default ZFS datasets from the automatic "zfsboot" script. Such as: /usr/ports/distfiles /usr/ports/packages /usr/obj /var/db /var/empty /var/mail and /var/run (these can all be created as-needed once the system is installed). + Remove setuid=off for /usr/home (as discussed from last round of CFT). + Fix some i18n string violations in "zfsboot". + Bolster debugging output in "zfsboot". + Fix some string quoting issues in "zfsboot". + Fix some variable scope issues in "zfsboot". + Change "Create" to "Install" in "zfsboot" main menu. + Increase error checking in "zfsboot" (type-check arguments and such). + Add call to "graid destroy" killing automatic metadata (part of the series of pedantic destructions we do when bootstrapping a new/naked disk). + Make judicious use of new f_eval_catch() in "zfsboot". + Fixup some variable names for consistency (zfsboot). + Fix an underride syntax parameter expansion folly (zfsboot). + Confirm layout if not explicitly chosen when blindly proceeding (no longer have to touch anything on the ZFS menu if it scares you, just choose the omnibus "Install" option at the top and you'll be prompted to select vdev type and disks in the layout confirmation dialog). + Change numbered menu items to alphabetic for more efficient navigation. + Consolidate vdev selection and disk selection into a single stateful menu which performs validation and allows backing out to each previous menu as you go deeper. + Redesign the ``Last Chance'' dialog (still using the same colors, but make it conform to a tolerable width and make disks appear in a block- quote style indented region). + Fix a bug wherein we used the a lowercase variable name by accident (actual variable name declared as all-uppercase) at the time of initializing fstab(5) (not believed to cause any issues though). + Update the geli setup infobox for each provider being initialized (not just at the onset -- since each ``geli init'' causes kernel messages to push our infobox off-screen).
