New release notes:

prompt parameter support in autoboot loader command,
	uplcom(4) CTS support,
	dc(4) ALTQ support,
	IPv6 MTU feedback disabled,
	ipfw(8) ALTQ classification and tagging, and
	newsyslog -d option.

Update release notes:
	F/pc98 still uses OLDCARD[1], and
	fix some typos:
		s/compatability/compatibility
		s/behaviour/behavior/.
