As reported by Jean-Baptiste Boric, lua would refuse to start,
throwing an error about incompatibility of numeric types.
This resolves#160.

This script uses the image generation framework to create a pkgsrc CD
image, useful for MINIX installations without Internet connectivity.

Setting PACKAGE_DIR without PACKAGES will default to bundling all
packages in PACKAGE_DIR. PKG_INFO is also mandatory now.

When possible, network drivers are now started automatically. That
means that netconf(8)'s network driver selection has become obsolete.
This patch changes netconf(8) to allow the user to specify a network
configuration (currently one of DHCP IPv4+IPv6, DHCP IPv4-only,
manual IPv4-only) for any hardware network interfaces that are
currently present.
Selection of network drivers that require manual configuration first
(mainly old ISA cards) is still supported, but now as a special case.

This commit adds a new TCP/IP service to MINIX 3. As its core, the
service uses the lwIP TCP/IP stack for maintenance reasons. The
service aims to be compatible with NetBSD userland, including its
low-level network management utilities. It also aims to support
modern features such as IPv6. In summary, the new LWIP service has
support for the following main features:
- TCP, UDP, RAW sockets with mostly standard BSD API semantics;
- IPv6 support: host mode (complete) and router mode (partial);
- most of the standard BSD API socket options (SO_);
- all of the standard BSD API message flags (MSG_);
- the most used protocol-specific socket and control options;
- a default loopback interface and the ability to create one more;
- configuration-free ethernet interfaces and driver tracking;
- queuing and multiple concurrent requests to each ethernet driver;
- standard ioctl(2)-based BSD interface management;
- radix tree backed, destination-based routing;
- routing sockets for standard BSD route reporting and management;
- multicast traffic and multicast group membership tracking;
- Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF) devices;
- standard and custom sysctl(7) nodes for many internals;
- a slab allocation based, hybrid static/dynamic memory pool model.
Many of its modules come with fairly elaborate comments that cover
many aspects of what is going on. The service is primarily a socket
driver built on top of the libsockdriver library, but for BPF devices
it is at the same time also a character driver.

Normally, each RMIB subtree consists of an array of nodes, indexed
by node identifier. In a sparsely filled subtree, most of the array
is empty and just wasting memory. In that case, it may be beneficial
to have a level of indirection, with an intermediate array containing
pairs of node IDs and pointers to the actual nodes. This patch adds
support for such indirection.
For the use cases that inspired this patch, net.inet and net.inet6,
the indirection shaves off a little under 16KB of memory from the
TCP/IP service.

Since the grant table is allocated dynamically, a system service always
runs the risk of running out of memory at run time when trying to
allocate a grant. In order to allow services to mitigate that risk,
grants can now be preallocated, typically at system service startup,
using the new cpf_prealloc(3) libsys function. The function takes a
'count' parameter that indicates the number of additional grants to
preallocate. Thus, the function may be called from multiple submodules
within a service, each preallocating their own maximum of grants that
it may need at run time.
