CONTRIBUTING.md: Tweaks for clarity
Add a few tweaks to clarify the author and signed-off-by lines. Add
clarifying note about the style checker. Refine the AI statements
for clarity, but these will need to be revised once the AI policy
has been completed.

mt76: update Mediatek's mt76 driver
This version is based on
git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git
24d479d26b25bce5faea3ddd9fa8f3a6c3129ea7 ( tag: v6.19-rc6 ).
Notable change: license got switched from ISC to BSD-3-Clause-Clear.
util.h is now imported from upstream given it is no longer GPL-only.
See the upstream repository 909675fd4344f73aad5f75f123bd271ada2ab9fb
and a96fed2825d8dfb068bf640419c619b5f2df4218.
For us the new version should also help with page pools and DMA32.

buf_ring: Rename some variables
The elements we store in buffer rings are buffers, so refer to them as
`buf` throughout instead of a mixture of `buf`, `ret`, and `new`,
especially since the latter breaks C++ code that directly or indirectly
includes this header.

xdr_string: don't leak strings with xdr_free
Historically (and in a small amount of older software such as OpenAFS),
developers would attempt to free XDR strings with
xdr_free((xdrproc_t)xdr_string, &string)
This resulted in xdr_free calling xdr_string with only two intentional
arguments and whatever was left in the third argument register. If the
register held a sufficently small number, xdr_string would return FALSE
and not free the string (no one checks the return values).
Software should instead free strings with:
xdr_free((xdrproc_t)xdr_wrapstring, &string)
Because buggy software exists in the wild, act as though xdr_wrapstring
was used in the XDR_FREE case and plug these leaks.

rpc/xdr.h: make xdrproc_t always take two arguments
The type of xdrproc_t is clearly defined in the comments as a function
with two arguments, an XDR * and a void * (sometimes spelled caddr_t).
It was initialy defined as:
typedef bool_t (*xdrproc_t)();
At some point people started giving it a non-empty argument list.
Unfortunatly, there has been widespread disagreement about how arguments
are passed. There seems to have been a widespread view that it should
be allowed to pass three argument function pointer to xdrproc_t. Most
notable is xdr_string which takes a maximum length parameter. This lead
to all sorts of prototypes (all of which have been present in the
FreeBSD source tree):
FreeBSD userspace (nominally from tirpc, but seemingly local):
typedef bool_t (*xdrproc_t)(XDR *, ...);
FreeBSD kernel, glibc:

dpnaa2: announce transmit checksum support
Let the network stack know that the NIC supports checksum offloading
for the IPv4 header checksum and the TCP and UDP transport checksum.
This avoids the computation in software and therefore provides the
expected performance gain.

14.4: Update stable/14 to -PRERELEASE
This marks the start of the FreeBSD 14.4 release cycle; the stable/14
tree is now in "code slush".
Developers are encouraged to prioritize fixing bugs (and/or merging bug
fixes from HEAD) over new features at this time. Commit approval from
re@ is not required but if new features introduce problems they may be
removed from the release.

x11/contour: Unbreak build on -CURRENT
clang with debug assertions enabled (on -CURRENT) crashes when it
tries to compile this port. As a workaround use clang from ports when
system clang has debug assertions enabled.
