Update the "internal" part of the website to:

Browse source 
- Stop encouraging people to mirror the FreeBSD web site
- Update the instructions to use csup rather than cvsup
- Remove details for compiling cvsup
- Stop linking to pages which no longer contains info on cvsup
- Fix the instructions
- Remove incorrect info about how often the FreeBSD website updates.

This page can probably just be removed, but until then it can at least be
correct.

www release=current host=cvsup.freebsd.org base=/usr prefix=/usr/local/www/data/www.freebsd.org delete use-rel-suffix
