H A Dbfe.4diff 4bc148c30effe0fc1c21b6bbaee366f239353ac1 Tue Jun 20 14:44:22 CEST 2023 Ed Maste <emaste@FreeBSD.org> bfe: add unmaintained / deprecation notice

The bfe (Broadcom BCM4401 10/100 Ethernet) driver has known bugs and no
active maintenance. There have been no changes other than sweeping tree
changes, typo corrections etc. since 2008 a far as I can tell. Add a
note in the man page so that users expectations are correctly set, and
indicate that it may be removed in the future.

I did not add a gone_in() call in the driver itself as there is no
specific target version for removal, and this driver has evidence of
recent use (dmesg, PRs).
