handbook/network: Clarify use of Amnesiac
When FreeBSD calls itself Amnesiac, that is not actually the hostname.
It does that when there is no hostname set. It is not a substitute for
assigning a hostname. Setting a hostname or complaining when none is set
would introduce a regression for cases where the hostname is assigned by
the DHCP server. Attempt to clarify the handbook instead of changing the
behavior.

handbook: ddd was removed in 2019
Remove obsolete ddd info: that port stopped working with gdb protocol
updates in about 2018, and was removed in 2019. It was abandoned
upstream around 2009 (last release). A new maintainer appeared in 2013,
but apparently didn't work out. Two new maintainers appeared in 2021 and
started new releases in 2023. A new port hasn't appeared, though, so
remove dangling references.
This whole section needs a rewrite, though, since dcons is so limited
(first 4GB only) and firewire is getting rare. All that should likely
just be removed. We need a good writeup on doing USB-C debugging with
the so-called USB-A to USB-A cable.

git primer: Update info about rebasing in a few places
Experience has shown that some of the advice in this primer is awkward
and clunky. Address some of that by refining what we suggest.

releases: Fix punctuation
Nonessential information in a sentence can be set off by preceding
*and following* it with commas.
While we're here, avoid unnecessarily splitting a sentence across
lines.

releases: Remove broken "todo" links
We haven't had any "todo.asc" files since 11.1. Don't provide links
to them, even commented out.
In recent releases we've been using a wiki page for tracking issues,
but I don't think it's particularly useful to include that link here;
during the release cycle developers see that URL at least once a week
and after the release it's no longer relevant.

14.3: late-breaking bug 287482, ZFS raw VM image
The file FreeBSD-14.3-RELEASE-amd64-zfs.raw.xz has been removed from
https://download.freebsd.org/releases/VM-IMAGES/14.3-RELEASE/amd64/Latest/
as it triggers a kernel panic in ZFS code. It is still available on
archive.freebsd.org in case anyone wants a test case (e.g. to fix the
kernel panic).
