After the refresh of the FreeBSD Foundation's website, some links changed,
which caused the link from the FreeBSD.org front page to the Journal to not
make the proper redirect anymore. Change the link to point to the new
location.

FreeBSD versions newer than 12.1 won't use portsnap anymore, so advise to use
Subversion instead.
While here, fix an errand plural.

Provide instructions around the existing references for portsnap about how to
fetch ports for FreeBSD versions after 12.1 or 11.4, respectively.
While here:
- replace a stray public address with a RFC1918 private address
- move a plural outside of the <filename> tags
- update FreeBSD versions in poudriere examples

with or without devmatch. Mention that loading of drivers in
loader.conf or via rc.conf may be required for certain versions. It
should be done in order to have the lagg interface properly set up
at boot time.
Thanks to Pau Amma for providing the patch.
While here, fix some overly long lines in the note above.

Don't recommend the -r flag to mountd.
It enables a non-standards compliant feature to support ancient
diskless terminals. We shouldn't recommend it without explanation.
(-r is currently the default in /etc/defaults/rc.conf along with -S,
this should likely be revisited.)
Instead, suggest setting mountd_enable. While not required to start
the NFS server, it is required for the "service mountd restart" command
below.
