freebsd with flexible iflib nic queues

Alexander Langer d61e6649d5 Since this file is doc now, reorganize its structure.
Currently, many drivers support more than one bus of ISA, EISA, MCA,
PCI.

Before this commit, we had, for example, some SCSI devices listed more
than once, iirc, some up to three times (ISA/EISA, MCA, PCI).

Since now the "device" line is common for all of them and they only
differ for the hints stuff, I did the following:

First, list Busses: (E)ISA, MCA, PCI and explain, that only ISA
needs the hints stuff.

Move NIC/SCSI stuff, which were the only split sections, behind these
stuff.  Describe all drivers only one time and list all supported
chips.

List all device (+ hints for ISA, if possible).

I've also added few additional supported chips to some drivers, xl for
example and some SCSI drivers.

Also, softupdates is no longer disabled by default, so the comment should
not say, it's not enabled by default due to license issues.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on:
$FreeBSD$

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel and the contents of /etc.  Please see the top of the Makefile
in this directory for more information on the standard build targets
and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel with config(8) is a somewhat more involved process,
documentation for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file LINT contains entries for all possible devices, not
just those commonly used, and is meant more as a general reference
than an actual kernel configuration file (a kernel built from it
wouldn't even run).
