freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.ORG instead of bugs@FreeBSD.ORG.

- Multi-function ethernet/modem cards are not supported
- 3c589D is not supported
- Add advice on how to setup the driver to work with 3c589 cards.
- State how to select the network connector.
Wipe out most of the obsoleted (2.2-related) changelist from the
relnotes, and add those stuff that came to mind being really new
in 3.0.
Folks, if you add some major feature in -current, please consider
recording it here. Our users love to know what they're getting by
reading it in a single file. In particular, the Lite2 mergers might

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
Remove a duplicate entry for ahc0 in hardware.hlp (closes PR #
docs/2282), a few additions all over the place while i was at it.
Tried to add as much of the important highlights for the new features

Change installation instructions to note that there's no dists directory
anymore on CDROMs.
I went over the code.
Add shortcuts for addUser and addGroup, documenting same.
Add a password field for adduser and use no-echo string field for it.
This requires my latest libdialog changes (in RELENG_2_2 or -current) to work.
obvious effects are that most of the automagically chosen defaults

error handling thanks to the more detailed error status reporting.
2.2 fodder, but i'll leave it to Jordan's review.
which will also need to be brought in before this screen will work.
Add some commentary about how the slip startup code is bogus.
