Add kernel symbols for multiboot1

Add multiboot 2 support to x86 bootloaders

multiboot 2 is required to boot Xen on an EFI system.
This also require a kernel patch for properly discovering
the ACPI RSDP, which is available after 20190912, in
src/sys/arch/x86/acpi/acpi_machdep.c 1.26-1.28

There are a few missing bit in this multiboot 2 implementation
(which are unused by Xen):
- Header tags Address, Freambuffer, and Relocatable are ignored
- Tags APM and Network are not provided
- Tags ACPI old and ACP new are only provided for ACPI boot
- Tag boot device does not provides the subpart (BSD disklabel partition)

Notes:
- multiboot2 is disabled in dosboot, otherwise the binary
gets too big and build fails.
- in src/sys/arch/i386/stand/efiboot, consinit() is renamed
as efi_consinit() to avoid prototype conflicts in src/sys/sys/systm.h

Remove debug define.

It remained there unseen because it was misspelled!

Remove obsoeolete BUGS note that UEFI bootloader does not support multiboot

Add new multiboot2.h header.
