Change the "basics" chapter to document FreeBSD 9 and 10 over FreeBSD 8:
- The system console is now xterm, not cons25
- acd0 devices are no longer used, switch to ada
- We no longer have as many FSF utilities, therefore fewer info pages
When talking about IDE/SATA disks, prioritise SATA over IDE, and "ada"
style naming over "ad". The latter has been the default since FreeBSD
9, and available since FreeBSD 8.
HostingAdvice covers how the FreeBSD Project works, and why system
administrators should consider switching to it.
Microsoft Azure blog covers the release of Microsoft Supported FreeBSD 10.3
images, with fixes that were committed to late for the 10.3 release cycle.

Finish editorial pass through Apache chapter.
Update mod_php to reflect the new port.
Comment out some of the mod_php config until it can be confirmed as

only needed in Apache 1.x.
Add some references.

Some reshuffling to improve flow.
