The examples I wrote previously do not work. We parse the flags using
explicit names, not the shortened flag suffix. Fix the list of major
flags, and add a compact list of minor flags. Fix the examples, and
tweak some wording for clarity.

Those get the bundled firmware loaded into the HBAs memory and executed.

Improve consistency of the field names with tcpsinfo_t:
* Use mss instead of max_seg_size.
* Use lport and rport instead of tcp_localport and tcp_foreignport.
Use t_flags instead of flags to improve consistency with t_flags2.
Add laddr and raddr, since the addresses were missing when compared
to the output of siftr.

The bfe (Broadcom BCM4401 10/100 Ethernet) driver has known bugs and no
active maintenance. There have been no changes other than sweeping tree
changes, typo corrections etc. since 2008 a far as I can tell. Add a
note in the man page so that users expectations are correctly set, and
indicate that it may be removed in the future.
I did not add a gone_in() call in the driver itself as there is no
specific target version for removal, and this driver has evidence of
recent use (dmesg, PRs).

gVNIC is a virtual network interface designed specifically for
Google Compute Engine (GCE). It is required to support per-VM Tier_1
networking performance, and for using certain VM shapes on GCE.
The NIC supports TSO, Rx and Tx checksum offloads, and RSS.
It does not currently do hardware LRO, and thus the software-LRO
in the host is used instead. It also supports jumbo frames.
For each queue, the driver negotiates a set of pages with the NIC to
serve as a fixed bounce buffer, this precludes the use of iflib.
