ff237c89e4 Start to unravel some of the mess in the Ethernet NIC section. The 
original hardware list was mostly organized by driver except for the
case of NICs by Intel, DEC, and 3Com, whose NICs tended to be
organized by manufacturer.  Most of these entries are now organized by
driver, except for a few 3Com NICs; also the multitude of ed(4)
drivers needs to be coalesced.

While I'm here, fix a markup glitch in the ISDN section that caused
any non-i386 hardware list to be incorrectly numbered.

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

The two reasons for doing this are to:  1) Get rid of a bunch of

will be much simpler if all the content is in a single file.
