bsdinstall: Add ntpdate option
When you install a computer for the first time, the date in the CMOS
sometimes
not accurate and you need to ntpdate as ntpd will fail a the time
difference
is too big.
Add an option in bsdinstall to enable ntpdate that will do that for
us.

The right way to enable a time-step at boot is to set the rc conf
variable ntpd_sync_on_start to YES. ntpdate has been deprecated for
*years*.

Hi Ian,
Thanks I didn't know about option -g (nor ntpd_sync_on_start), this
bring a few questions :
- Is there any reason to not always use -g for ntpd ? As a lambda user
I just want my time to be set, no matter what.
- Should we remove ntpdate in -current before 12 if it's deprecated ?
I'll make the necessary changes according to your (or others) answers.
Cheers,
