275d9b59d3 Update references to 'device' entries for the kernel config 
files to use 5.x syntax (I hope..)

Note: I suppose one might need to hack the hints file as well?

398f29f684 Consolidate the various SGML source files making up the release 
notes document.  Basically, I've moved the contents of common/
{artheader,intro,upgrading}.sgml into common/new.sgml, removed duplicate
$FreeBSD$ markers, and adjusted the various references to these files.
No other whitespace or content changes.

This change will make it easier to do some minor restructuring.

1c598c2c17 New release notes: Use net/cvsup, rather than net/cvsup-bin and 
net/cvsupd-bin.  Also note CVSup update to fix S1G bug.

I'm breaking a self-imposed rule of not mentioning ports-collection
updates in release notes.  I'm only doing this because CVSup is a
fairly essential part of the FreeBSD Project infrastructure.  Save
for exceptions such as this, the release notes will continue to
document changes to the base system only.

f6b1b0cc33 If NO_LANGCODE_IN_DESTDIR is defined, don't put the language code in 
DESTDIR.  This avoids redundant information in the path when DOCDIR
points to some directory that already implies (or specifies) a certain
language.  This is the case with the web site, where the release notes
are already installed under a language-specific directory.  This
behavior is not being made mandatory because it might still be useful
to install all the translations in one directory, such as during
testing, or in a hypothetical release notes archive.  Furthermore, it
is not being made the default because that breaks consistency with
stuff under doc/.

d97e531329 Reorganization of FreeBSD README document. This change adds no new 
content or whitespace changes; it just moves sections around for
better organization; the content of this file used to be fairly
fragmented because it originally was derived from parts of several other
documents.

The first half of "About FreeBSD" has been pulled into the Introduction
section.  The remainder of "About FreeBSD" plus the "Release Documentation"
section now make up a new <sect1></sect1> level section entitled
"Further Reading".

The two reasons for doing this are to:  1) Get rid of a bunch of
itty-bitty files and 2) help with a reorganization of the README that
will be much simpler if all the content is in a single file.

I didn't do this when I merged the delta to RELENG_4 because I thought
&merged; didn't apply to contributed software since there is one entry
per application which gets updated with the new version number, as
opposed to all the other programs, which get one entry per update.
However, the previous commit removed &merged; from the IPFilter entry,
so perhaps I just didn't look long enough when I did the tcpdump
merge.
