Website - Commercial: Remove misc section
With the removal of FreeBSD Mall, the misc category it's empty.
Remove it from the theme, we can add it later in case we add something
in misc again.

New design for the FreeBSD website.
This is not the end of the road, this is the beginning of a
continuous improvement in our website.
Respecting our users privacy, the website can work without
JavaScript enabled.
Tested on:
* FreeBSD: Firefox, Chrome
* Debian GNU/Linux: Firefox, Chrome
* Windows 10: Firefox, Chrome, Edge, IE11
* Windows 11: Firefox, Chrome, Edge
* Android 16: Firefox, Chrome
* iOS: Firefox, Safari
Thanks for all the people who sent feedback about the new design:

boot: Replace occurrences of qualified name with full path
In many parts of this chapter the use of "qualified name" and
"unqualified name" was used to refer to a full path to a file (or just
the filename). This terminology is used more in networking terms (i.e.
fully qualified hostname) and is strange to use when referring to files
and directories in a filesystem. It leads to confusion for the reader,
which is why I replaced it throughout the chapter with the more commonly
used term "full path" where appropriate.
While here, remove some whitespaces at the end of sentences.

where: Installation becomes introductory paragraph
This page is really long, and has no introductory paragraph.
Instead of hiding the installation section at the bottom, simplify
it into an introductory paragraph.

handbook/introduction: Replace disc with cloud
FreeBSD hasn't fit on a CD-ROM in a long time,
and nobody we know of is selling FreeBSD DVDs.
This whole page needs TLC, one thing at a time.

Mirrors: Remove CD and DVD distributors
The last few years, there is only one distributor of FreeBSD discs,
and they only update their website if I send them an email, so I think
they are not actually selling any and nobody wants this.
Discussed with: cperciva
where: Remove list of downstreams
This page is about where to get FreeBSD as released by the Project.
This list also exists in the handbook, and doesn't really belong here.
