Patch to fix the missing "-a" flag on mkimg commands

/usr/src/tools/tools/nanobsd/embedded/common contains a series of sections that
use the "mkimg" command to make the disk image.  This command includes a switch
(-a) to make the active partition that is *not* present in other than -HEAD,
and thus the command fails.

A workaround is available by using mdconfig to mount the image after it is
built and set the active flag using gpart.  Patch attached to (1) delete the
missing "-a" flag from the mkimg command and (2) mount and image and use gpart
to set the active flag instead.
