Summary

i386 can no longer be a reference architecture in 15.0 and later.
Instead, require new portable features to work on at least one Tier 1
architecture and drop the notion of a separate set of reference
architectures.

While here, FreeBSD has not been i386-only for so long that the
leading sentence now is out of place, so drop it.
