adding in serverboot v2 draft RFC.
* hurd/bootstrap.mdwn: I inlined the what_is_an_os_bootstrap page, and wrote that the current bootstrap page is out of date and does not include pci-arbiter or rumpdisk. * hurd/what_is_an_os_bootstrap.mdwn: a new web page that is not meant to be viewed directly. Instead hurd/bootstrap and open_issues/serverbootv2 is meant to inline the content. * open_issues/serverbootv2.mdwn: Sergey proposed this new bootstrap for the Hurd. This is a draft RFC document that explains the reasoning behind it. Not that "Serverboot V2" is a working name. We have yet to find a better name for it. Message-ID: <20240527010924.2607-1-jbranso@dismail.de>

# State at the beginning of the bootstrap
+Please note that as of May 2024 this document is out of date. It does

After initializing itself, GNU Mach sets up tasks for the various bootstrap
translators (which were loader by the GRUB bootloader). It notably makes
variables replacement on their command lines and boot script function calls (see
