fbsd-from-scratch: remove it

Description

fbsd-from-scratch: remove it

  • it references sysinstall, which is gone
  • the scripts used to install the system use pkg_add not pkg
  • and are rotted in other ways
  • the limitations of sysinstall have been somewhat mitigated by
	  bsdinstall (which can install into a new directory)
  • it warns of outdated stuff (acroread8 doesn't exist anymore)
  • package building takes place on runnning system and not on poudriere
  • many of the packages referenced don't exist or are vastly changed
  • it incorrectly installs the base system
  • and more

Discussed with: jmg, Daniel O'Connor, bjk
