Clarified text in File System Backups
Redid examples in Directory Backups to show how 3 utils differ when creating similar backups.
New examples are aimed at what a new user is likely to do. More complex examples should be added.
Next pass will finish this section, to be followed by white space fix-ups.

The primary purposes are to clean up duplicated author definitions in
both share/xml/authors.ent and share/xml/developers.ent, and as a added
bonus simplify writing up author names/email addresses in web pages.
Apart from merging developers.ent into authors.ent, removing the former,
and updating the Committers Guide there should be little user-visible changes:
- a.portmgr renamed to a.portmgr.members
- a.doceng renamed to a.doceng.members
- team.re renamed to a.re.members.email and moved from
share/xml/freebsd.ent to share/xml/authors.ent
- a.core updated and moved from share/xml/mailing-lists.ent to
share/xml/teams.ent
- share/pgpkeys/{addkey.sh|README} updated
Translations are untouched except for build fixes.
