en/news: document new and returning src committers in 2026

entry was added in the access file under the `internal/admin` branch.
This only includes new/returning src commit bits; some docs and ports
commit bits may have been missed in this change.

Add missing devfs vmmctl rule and the volmode=dev to the example
When vmmctl is not set to unhide in devfs.rules, the example will fail.
Add it to the instructions. Further, add a volmode=dev to the zvol
creation command to not get an input/output error.

Fix broken doc package, offline local and online local browsing
Fix a bug that prevents the packaged FreeBSD documentation from being
browsed correctly when built using the offline Hugo configuration.
The offline configuration leaves baseURL empty, causing Hugo to fall
back to https://example.org/. As a result, the generated documentation
contains incorrect links, breaking offline browsing and online browsing
by directing users to example.org. This affects the built package as
well (tested with pkg version: en-freebsd-doc-20260814,1; tested on a
fresh VM with documentation installed using bsdinstall(8)). According to
the Hugo documentation, this is the default behavior when baseurl is not
set.
The fix is to set baseURL = "/" ensuring the generated documentation can
be browsed directly from the file system without requiring the web
server. This also preserves the ability to browse the documentation
through the local server started by 'make run'.

Replace more http links with https
Replaced links that still exist with their https derivatives. For those
links that are dead, a suitable replacement was tried to put into its
place. If nothing came up during the search, removed the link entirely.
