A user on IRC wondered why his AES-NI-enabled CPU was identified by geli
as "Crypto: accelerated software" on a 13.0-RC, when 12.2 identified it
as "Crypto: hardware".
To help alliviate this confusion, make explicit mention of the change.
While here, also add note to clear up confusion about no functional
change.

- Remove extraneous quotes from attributes.
- Prefer active voice to passive voice when describing changes.
- Correct a few entries that claimed functionality changed when
the associated changes were changes to the documentation.
- Move the VirtIO V1 comment to the device drivers section and
make it more generic as well as adding missing context for Q35
(it's specific to QEMU).
- Trim the bhyve entries to not include changes already present
in 12.2. Also, don't list bugfixes to previous changes, e.g.
a single entry for VM snapshots is sufficient from a user's
perspective.
- Replace some bhyve entries with broader entries such as support
for LA57 and Hygon Dhyana.
- In the note about the i386 CPUTYPE, shift to present tense
instead of future tense.

Rewrite much of the 486->686 default code generation section. This mostly
improves the wording, but also fleshes out some of the examples given and
provides more examples. Minor typos also corrected.
Attaching processes will now largely retain their cpu masks, which is a
fairly large and notable change from previous releases.
