It is some times hard to understand the difference between
kernel version and userland version. So clarify the -r option
of uname(1) in terms of a printed kernel version.
While here, add some cross references:
- cross reference freebsd-version(1) in uname(1)
- cross reference freebsd-version(1) and uname(1) in freebsd-update(8)

was one of the additions in PWB, and appeared in System III and later commercial
versions of Unix. The different args to uname weren't aded until System III. Add
a quick note to note the late entry into the BSD fork of Unix since PWB
otherwise implies a pre-fork date.
All of them are needed to be able to boot to single user and be able
to repair a existing FreeBSD installation so put them directly into
FreeBSD-runtime.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
Initially, only tag files that use BSD 4-Clause "Original" license.

Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

Off by default, build behaves normally.
WITH_META_MODE we get auto objdir creation, the ability to
start build from anywhere in the tree.
Still need to add real targets under targets/ to build packages.
