XZ images for DragonFly

[Dongsheng Song]

If DragonFly have separated sets, most users don't have to spent long times
to do make buildworld, buildkernel, installkernel, installworld and upgrade.

For example, I can download OpenBSD daily build to upgrade my box:

/bin/ln -f  /bsd        /obsd
/bin/cp     bsd.rd      /bsd.rd
/bin/cp     bsd         /bsd.sp
/bin/cp     bsd.mp      /bsd.new
/bin/mv     /bsd.new    /bsd

cp /sbin/reboot /root/reboot

tar -C / -xzpf man58.tgz
tar -C / -xzpf xshare58.tgz
tar -C / -xzpf xbase58.tgz
tar -C / -xzpf comp58.tgz
tar -C / -xzpf base58.tgz

/root/reboot

cd /dev
./MAKEDEV all

/usr/sbin/sysmerge

Thanks.
