auto_upgrade.conf in bsd.rd instead of sysupgrade(8) itself.
ajacoutot@ fixed this, but had to introduce a bunch of compat code in
bsd.rd.
It is time to retire this. Only 6.5-current contained this flaw,
sysupgrade(8)ing from there to -current will no longer work but we
never made any promises that it would anyway.
OK deraadt, ajacoutot
backslash at the end for line continuation
Breaking long lines into multiple ones must still be possible and does
require to treat the backslash as an escape character.
Breakage reported by Mark Patruck <mark at wrapped dot cx >, thanks!

Do not treat backslashe as an escape character in hostname.if(5) lines
ifstart() should always pass such lines unaltered, especially if they
contain "nwid" or "description" lines with arbitrary strings.
<bsdlisten at gmail dot com> reported SSIDs such as "Mike's" during
installation end as broken; this was because the installer escaped
the single quote using backslashes which ended up being treated as
escape characters much later during hostname.if parsing in netstart(8).
Ok deraadt
Neither netstart's nor install.sub's (subtly different) implementations
remove trailing comments on lines not starting as a comment, e.g.,
lines like "up #not down" go through unaltered and without "#not down"
being removed.
Only lines *beginning* with the comment sign ("#") are stripped.
No functional change, just updating function descriptions.

contain "nwid" or "description" lines with arbitrary strings.

Ok deraadt
but additionally have a bootblock in the first 8K (since UFS does not use that
space). There are some UEFI direct-from-internet bootloaders that require
the name *.img. So this makes things more convenient for those, while keeping
it consistant in all architectures.
