 amd64

>Description:
the boot(8) manpage referes readers to boot_console(8) to find out what the 
different consdev arguments do, but there isn't a boot_console(8) on amd64.
>How-To-Repeat:
'man boot_console' on and amd64 machine.
>Fix:
In the Makefile in:

src/share/man/man8/man8.amd64/

add boot_console.8 to the MAN= line.

(mbr.8 multiboot.8 pxeboot.8 dosboot.8 could probably be added as well)
