Remove NAT section from advanced-networking chapter.
It was linked to from the firewalls chapter, but we aren't there yet.
To make the handbook build in the german tree and allow further updates
to the advanced-networking chapter, simply remove the link. The firewalls
chapter will be updated eventually, and will then get the NAT info back.

N.M-BETA1 and N.M-RC1 from the upcoming N.M-RELEASE
testing builds. It causes too much confusion when
N.M-BETA1 is shown on the index page, but N.M-BETA2
is available on FTP.

that we will be soon entering the release cycle. As such, we are
not able to easily link to the upcoming release schedule.html page
from the index page unless we already have BETA release builds on
the FTP mirrors.
Implement some evil to eliminate this limitation:
- In share/xml/release.l10n.ent, move reusable text from the
'helptest' header, and into a beta.helptest macro, and include
the new macro in beta.desc.
- Add a new entity, beta.local.where, which is ignored by default.
When enabled in the schedule.xml for the upcoming release, it
prints information about where to download the testing builds.
- Add two new entities, beta.upcoming and beta2.upcoming, which
are used in index.xsl, and when set, direct the URL to the
upcoming release schedule.html page instead of directly to
where.html. With this change, we can advertise that a release
cycle is about to start, and not need downloadable images yet.

Entries in this file are copy/pasted more often than not, so it would be
best if they followed the proper doceng guidelines for line length and
tabs/spaces etc.
I cleaned up all entries from 2012 to current.

From the PR:
- Describe that it's possible to install prebuilt binaries as well as build
from source.
- Instructions on how to extract distfiles on 8.x & earlier / 9.0 & later
- Remove reference to jail_www_devfs_ruleset rc.conf, as-is it prevents the
jail from starting because a ruleset needs to be defined & as there is no
documentation for that in the article, it's easier to remove it, by doing
this, the default ruleset is applied.
- Add instructions on how to keep jails up to date with freebsd-update.
I cleaned up the patch a bit, but it is still good work for a first patch.
