I'm fine with this, but wonder if we should leave this temporarily with a note that it's deprecated? I.e. imagine a user runs gpart and sees Vinum reported and looks for more information in the man page?

Yeah, I was a bit borderline on this change. I think we already don't document the dragonfly-vinum entry in this manpage though.
