Summary

Load a splash screen that vt(4) can use if the "splash" env variable is defined.
For now only png is supported and decoding is done in loader and not in kernel
compared to splash screen support in sc(4).

For using this add:
boot_mute="YES"
splash="/boot/images/freebsd-logo-rev.png"
in loader.conf
