De-empasize the use of shar archives when submitting new ports.
When we were still using gnats and CVS, shar was the best way of submitting
new ports to the PR database, for inclusion in the ports tree. These days,
it is usually easier to use a patch from svn, or even git.
Move the shar example further to the bottom of the page in the section about
submitting ports to the FreeBSD project.

While here, modernize and tighten up the text.
TODO: I am checking with the Foundation to see if the physical address

The ZFS quota examples started with setting quotas for a user that was not
created in the chapter. This led to some confusion for (new) people who tried
out the example and got an error message about the missing user.
Add a small paragraph to explain this concept and that ideally, when creating
a user, the /home dataset should be created first to not shadow it afterwards.

Change the e-mail address for quarterly reports submissions from quarterly@

sendmail. The instructions in the handbook
were from a time when we did not have any
OpenSSL version in the base system. Nowadays,
with different versions of OpenSSL in various
FreeBSD branches that differ in API/ABI, these
small corrections are needed because they would
be broken for stable/11 otherwise.
Thanks to Eugen Grosbein for pointing this out
and providing the lines for /etc/make.conf.
