Pass lists of possible root devices and their names up to the
machine-independent code and try mounting the devices in the
lists instead of guessing alternative root devices in a machine-
dependent way.

autoconf.c:
Reject preposterous slice numbers instead of silently converting
them to COMPATIBILITY_SLICE.

Don't forget to force slice = COMPATIBILITY_SLICE in the floppy
device name.

Eliminated most magic numbers and magic device names in setroot().

Fixed dozens of style bugs.

vfs_conf.c:
Put the actual root device name instead of "root_device" in the
mount struct if the actual name is available.  This is useful after
booting with -s.  If it were set in all cases then it could be used
to do mount(8)'s ROOTSLICE_HUNT and fsck(8)'s hotroot guess better.
