83b0ffe3df Remove references to the "Contributing to FreeBSD" chapter. This is
moving to a separate article.  This chapter is not appropriate for the
current handbook, it will stick out even more as we split the handbook
into smaller books, and a separate article is more conducive to being
linked from the navigation bar on the main page just like the OpenBSD
and NetBSD web sites.
