base system

FYI.
FreeBSD -CURRENT users with ipw(4) or iwi(4) will have to set
legal.intel_<driver>.license_ack=1 in /boot/loader.conf after making
sure they agreed to Intel LICENSE file located in
/usr/share/doc/legal/intel_<driver> (where <driver> is ipw or iwi).
Ports will be marked as IGNORE for OSVERSION >= 700032 in a few minutes.
I'd like to thank Andrew Wilson once again for the dedication he showed
in getting things done.
PS: Before you ask, wpi(4) (Intel PRO/Wireless LAN 3945) firmware will
also be included once the driver hits the tree.

Log:
- Add Intel firmwares for Intel PRO/Wireless LAN 2100/2200/2915 cards
in a uuencoded format along with their respective LICENSE files.
- Add new share/doc/legal directory to BSD.usr.dist mtree file. This
is the place we install LICENSE files for restricted firmwares.
- Teach firmware(9) and kmod.mk about licensed firmwares. Restricted
firmwares won't load properly unless legal.<name>.license_ack is set
to 1, either via kenv(1) or /boot/loader.conf.
