44f3728d7a Remove a duplicate copy of the fe(4) devices that somehow snuck in
here.  Trim devices from the remaining fe(4) section as the manpage
now covers all of them.

While here, remove a comment that instructs developers on how to add
specific instances of devices, since we're moving away from that now.

3ba682b624 Move aha(4) devices out of Adaptec-centric section to new paragraphs.
We didn't try to list all the variants so there isn't much shrinkage
here.

Remove list of supported mlx(4) devices; readers should get this
information from the manual page.

4bbe69aae4 Begin snipping out the lists of specific devices from the Hardware
Notes.  These duplicate information that ideally should live in the
manual pages for individual drivers, and can easily become
out-of-date.  (This in fact is already the case.)

Hypertext versions of the hardware notes already contain links to
on-line versions of the manual pages.

The first two drivers to get this treatment are amr(4) and aac(4).
