Release the evil twin of nanobsd.sh: sysbuild.sh

quoth the README:

I have been running -current on my laptop since before FreeBSD 2.0 was
released and along the way developed this little trick to making the
task easier.

sysbuild.sh is a way to build a new FreeBSD system on a computer from
a specification, while leaving the current installation intact.

sysbuild.sh assume you have two partitions that can hold your rootfs
and can be booted, and roughly speaking, all it does is build a new
system into the one you don't use, from the one you do use.

A partition named /freebsd is assumed to be part of your layout, and
that is where the sources and ports will be found.

If you know how nanobsd works, you will find a lot of similarity.
