The default is to create a zroot that consumes the whole disk because if
used with geli(8) this makes sense.
Without geli(8), I like to keep my data pool separate from my system
pool.
This is different than ZFSBOOT_BOOT_POOL_SIZE which is named bootpool.

Per hier(7), the ESP will be mounted at /boot/efi. On UFS systems,
any existing ESP will be reused and mounted there; otherwise, a new one
will be made. On ZFS systems, space for an ESP is allocated on all disks
in the root pool, but only the partition actually used to boot is set up
and mounted.
This makes future upgrades of the EFI loader easier (upgrade scripts can
just change /boot/efi) and also greatly simplifies the parts of the
installer involved in initialization of the ESP. It also makes the
installer's behavior correspond to the documentation in hier(7).

Currently, the installer uses pre-created 800KB FAT12 filesystems that
it dd's onto the ESP partition.
This changeset improves that by having the installer generate a FAT32
filesystem directly onto the ESP using newfs_msdos and then copying
loader.efi into /EFI/freebsd.
For live installs it then runs efibootmgr to add a FreeBSD boot entry
in the BIOS.

After r336252 it is no longer necessary to have a separate bootpool when
booting from an encrypted disk with UEFI.
This change also switches the EFI System Partition contents from
the 800 KB boot1.efifat to a new 200 MB filesystem created with newfs_msdos
and uses loader.efi directly, instead of boot1.efi.

then zfsldr seeks to the wrong offset inside the ZFS vdev label, and is
unable to find zfsboot, so the system does not boot
If 4k alignment is requested, align the BSD partition in the MBR table,
