Luigi Rizzo f3b9ca556a Upgrade etherboot to 5.0.5, improve pkg documentation and use more
sensible defaults for FreeBSD. Specifically:

Makefile, distinfo:
   upgrade to etherboot 5.0.5

pkg-descr:
   improve description on installing on floppy/hd

files/patch-aa:
   implement some FreeBSD-specific defaults, namely:
   + boot1a.s
        use a FreeBSD partition type instead of a DOS partition type
   + makerom.c
        pad the image size to multiples of 8k instead of powers of 2.
        This makes the tulip image fit in the 62 sectors which are
        typically unused on the first track of hard disks (other images
        were already 16k so there is not a problem with them).
   + Makefile
        make the disk loader bin/boot1a.bin be compiled by default
   All these diffs are in the same patchfile because they are very
   short, version independent (they even work with 5.0.4 and probably
   earlier versions of etherboot) and will be contributed back to the
   developers, so it is not worthwhile to clutter the ports subtree
   with multiple patches.
