R9:ea15bb64bbcd: [hb]: CDs are not usable anymore

Summary

FreeBSD's disc1 image has surpassed 700MB, which is CD-ROM max size. dvd1 image is also almost at its limit, which is 4.7GB for single layer DVD (FreeBSD 14 dvd1 is 4541104128 bytes=4.54 GB).

In several years, FreeBSD images will surpass the limit for single-layer DVD, which means that the naming "disc1" and "dvd1" won't make sense anymore. I suggest to change the name of images such as -minimal and -full.

Worth adding releng as reviewer, since this probably needs to be kept consistent with their tools?

154	This change is not entirely needed, as bootonly fits on a CD, but I don't see an easy way to solve it. Given that it refers to the file size, I think it is OK. I think attempts to burn disc1 to CD would fail before writing. btw, disc1 looks to have been too big for a CD since 11.0, 8 years ago.
