emaste added a reviewer: cy.

We should probably add the more specific- "deprecated and will be removed before FreeBSD 13" both here and the man page.

extend warning as suggested by @kevans

I will commit the man page separately and MFC it in short order; I will also update it to mention that amd is available from ports (if e.g. someone doesn't want to change their existing config for some reason)
