Avoid dead link to the NVRAM FAQ in docs for sparc, too

Undo the .Ss2 quoting hack, the macros can now handle it.

More cleanup:
- simplify TOC handling and remove arg limit (from uwe)
- use Lk with explicit anchor text in some places
- do not allow official release builds when we can not derive the
proper

Quote long .Ss2 title to avoid troff's limitation.

Troff is limited to 9 macro parameters and this title is 10 words, so
we lose the last word here when we pass arguments around. We have
more title

Troff is limited to 9 macro parameters and this title is 10 words, so
we lose the last word here when we pass arguments around. We have

Various updates to the INSTALL notes in preparation for 5.0. Changes
are still to come.

Note root partition size limitations on certain sparc and sparc64 models
(taken from the boot(8) manual pages).

Suppress the whitespace after parenthesis.

Fix warnings.

Mention that installer defaults to serial speed of 9600 8N1 and user might
want to pre-configure their system around that.
Closes PR 11946

update minimum disk requirements

Replace "filesystem" with the correct phrase, "file system."

clean up whitespace and formatting

add note about dead NVRAM (ethernet address is all F's) and link to FAQ

more work:
- use .Tn, .Bx, .Ul, .Key, .Sq, .Dq, .Li, .Dl, (etc) ... as appropriate
- be more consistent between various ports' install notes
- other cleanups

minor fixes,
added info on how sun4 models deal with scsi targets
some typos caught
add info on how to break from automatically booting (i.e. enter ROM prompt)

Major overhaul. Cleaned up a lot of explanations, clarified instructions,

Major overhaul. Cleaned up a lot of explanations, clarified instructions,
provided more detail when necessary and removed extraneous instructions.

hardware: totally revamped to be more readable and include all known
supported hardware, now matches htdocs/Ports/sparc/hardware.html

install: new section on CD-ROM, netboot has instructions on setting up a
NetBSD server, removed disklabel instructions (miniroot/sysboot's
instructions are clear enough and have error-checking anyways)

prep: reorganized, put in cleaner explanation of SCSI target remapping on
OpenBOOT PROM 1 machines, put in instructions on how to figure out names
ROM uses for SCSI device, put in info about 100BaseTX network cards

upgrade: now points to ../common/upgrade
