[Simh] Adding storage to vax running 4.3BSD

[Anders Magnusson]

4.3BSD has its partition tables compiled into the driver.  You can 
generate the C code for the disk drivers using diskpart based on disktab.

Note that you must use the same entry in the device driver that you 
later use for newfs (which reads the disk partition stuff from disktab).
