  SVN rev 190058 on 2009-03-19 14:23:17Z by ivoras
  
  Make GEOM provider names starting with "/dev/" acceptable as well as their
  "raw" names. While there, change the formatting of extended MSDOS partitions
  so that the dot (".") is not used to separate two numbers (which kind of
  looks like the whole is a decimal number). Use "+" instead, which also
  hints that the second part of the name is the offset from the start of
  the partition in the first part of the name. Also change the offset from
  decimal to hexadecimal notation, simply for aesthetic reasons and future
  compatibility.
  
  GEOM_PART is the default in 8-CURRENT but not yet in 7-STABLE so this
  changeset can be MFC-ed without causing major problems from the second
  part.
