patch to usr.sbin/bsdinstall/startbsdinstall

This patch improves the support of pkg installation in the live environment.
Currently, pkg has to be manually bootstrapped before it can install pkgs in
the live env. Since the installation media is often used as a tool for
inspecting and rescuing systems, it would be great if users can easily install
tools in live env using pkg to their needs. 

This patch provides a bsddialog menu for pkg bootstrap after "Live System"
option is selected from the installer menu. If "Yes", it goes on asking for
network configurations, and bootstraps pkg under `/usr/local`.
