After discussing some updates to the PF chapter with current maintainer kp@,
I came up with the following list of changes in this patch:
- Change the warning message to remove the reference to a specific PF version
and point out that FreeBSDs pf has diverged from what's in OpenBSD.
- Remove a link to the old pf porting efforts, which is obsolete nowadays and
doesn't provide much value to the reader anymore
- Change the reading flow by putting the ALTQ section at the end of the chapter.
ALTQ with PF is not used by everyone, so having that at the end of the chapter
is good to not overwhelm the reader too much with concepts they probably don't
need.
- Remove the "In order to" sentence parts which are mostly superfluous and can
be replaced with "to" for increased readability
- Sprinkle in some sysrc in examples where it makes sense to use it

It is not immediately obvious to all users how to move the cursor around
the partitioning section in bsdinstall, and this kind of thing can put
people off very quickly.

It has been outdated since August 2018 when all *proto ports have
been folded into xorgproto. Component descriptions are auto-generated

The discussions with affected parties have concluded. It was determined
that more time is required for the community to adjust. Thus, there will
be no changes to the support model for STABLE/12. Any changes will apply
to STABLE/13.

- Remove mention of CARGO_GH_CARGOTOML after ports r496795
- Update CARGO_USE_GITHUB description. It does not patch Cargo.lock.
That is done automatically during the configure phase by cargo
itself and is not worth mentioning here.

This file had a lot of long lines in it as well as redundant markup with
words. A few capitalizations were also fixed, except a few where it would
obscure the original meaning like groff.
