2e897de412 Correct documentation on kernel option for SCSI_DELAY for CDROM 
timeouts.  Quotes around kernel options with numbers went out in the
Stone Age, and using whole seconds went out when CAM arrived.

Also add a very brief description of what this option does.

beea8c1505 Move CDROM "device not configured" error information from FAQ to 
Handbook.

I believe that the answer given in the FAQ is incorrect, but am not
enough of a SCSI stud to confirm it.  I'll be forwarding the info to
the -scsi list and asking for confirmation or denial before I make any
content changes.

Cut the System Administration chapter roughly in half.  Create a new
chapter: Disks, Filesystems, and Boot Loaders.

Put new chapter in rough order:

*new hard disks
*UFS tricks
*foreign filesystems
*foreign loaders
*removeable disks
*misc

This makes the monstrous System Administration chapter short enough to
be almost usable.

1c96fb5266 Close pr/32278, my last submitted PR as a non-committer. 
Add descriptions of what a port distfile is, and how it's used.  Use
the word distfile instead of "the program source code.

Not certain if this commit message is formatted correctly: the
X-forwarded emacs doesn't present the standard commit template.  Must
ask my mentor why not, but don't want to leave this hanging.

Some software (like PGPfreeware 7.0.3) includes string such

We should escape these characters in addition to our mail addresses.

1f954d79d5 Add a more detailed explanation about softupdates. I originally wrote 
this as an article for a German-language newsgroup, and people felt
there's a lot of misconception about the topic around, so they urged
me to publish it.  Eventually, Matthias Schuendehuette submitted an
English translation of the article to me and asked me to review it.

Finally, Kirk graciously reviewed it, too.
