Compilers may define multiple variants of architecture-specific macros
(for example, both __x86_64 and __x86_64__). Add a note that the macros
documented in arch.7 are the preferred ones for FreeBSD.

Remove all the details about armeb from arch(7), except for its
release start and end, like alpha, ia64 and pc98.

- remove "all rights reserved" from my copyright on my extensive
contributions
- belatedly add my name to tuning.7 which I was a large contributor to
several years ago
This commit can also serve as implicit permission for any formatting or
non-substantive changes that FreeBSD wishes to make in the future.
- Use Fx when referring to FreeBSD.
- Use Ql instead of Cm for command invocations.
- Remove some redundant Pp macros.
- Use a literal indented Bd instead of a series of Dl macros.

For some reason, the other link - https://lists.FreeBSD.org/ - needs
the trailing slash, otherwise man(8) renders it in a weird way. No
idea why's that. At least try to be consistent. Revert it when the
other link gets fixed.

This matches directory structure used commonly in Linux-land, and it's
cleaner than mixing overlays into the existing module paths. Overlays are
still mixed in by specifying fdt_overlays in loader.conf(5).

A comment in Makefile.inc1 has long stated that LOCAL_DIRS are built last,
after the base system. Incremental improvements in parallel building over
the years have led to LOCAL_DIRS being built in parallel with base system
directories. This change allows the .WAIT directive to appear in LOCAL_DIRS
and LOCAL_LIB_DIRS lists to give the user some control over parallel
building of local additions.

xlint is currently a fossil. We have much more useful and alive tools
to do now what xlint did twenty years ago.
I did not cleared some stuff which makes lint operational, in
sys/x86/include and sys/sys, but I might do it as followup. The
x86/include/ucontext.h and _types.h hacks made to please lint was the
main reason for my initial proposal to classify xlint as obsolete and
to remove it.
Also I do not intend to clear sccs ids.

The information here is somewhere between ancient to obsolete.
It refers to a time in the internet's history when manual routing
was still useful, talks about UUCP as if its modern, and refers
to documents which I had trouble tracking down.
It seems unlikely that a manual page in this form would be useful, so
just remove it.

NO_OBJ has a very specific meaning in sub-directories in that no object
directory will be made. If a user wanted to skip the 'make obj' phase then
passing -DNO_OBJ would break all sub-directories from building properly. Using
NO_OBJ internally also causes issue with NO_OBJ handling being added in
share/mk/bsd.init.mk soon.

This changes the build OBJDIR from the older style of /usr/obj/<srcdir> for
native builds, and /usr/obj/<target>.<target_arch>/<srcdir> for cross builds to
a new simpler format of /usr/obj/<srcdir>/<target>.<target_arch>. This
new format is used regardless of cross or native build. It allows
easier management of multiple source tree object directories.
The UNIFIED_OBJDIR option will be removed and its feature made permanent
for the 12.0 release.
Relnotes: yes (don't note UNIFIED_OBJDIR option since it will be removed)

Without this the user has to mess with 'make -f Makefile.inc1 ...' to figure
out where the files are installed in the OBJDIR and then they need to copy them
to where they really wanted them. Using DESTDIR may be problematic after
r325001 as well.
The files will be installed to DESTDIR/NXTP where NXTP defaults to /nxb-bin.
