9e4c4ae1fd Chop stale information about when the stable branches ended support. 
The FAQ already references the releng pages for the specific dates.

This reduces the sources-of-truth that must be updated.

401bb56d52 Add a list of checksums of packages that were removed from ftp.FreeBSD.org 
after the recent security incident.  Note that none of these packages are
klnown to be in any way compromised, however we cannot verify that they
have *not* been compromised.  They are being listed here in order to
allow people who may have downloaded packages to verify that their local
copies are not on the "unverifiable package" list.
