Johannes M Dieterich bfbf8bd33e LinuxKPI-based DRM ports: move to new ports nomenclature.
After some discussions within the x11 team, it was decided to move to a new
nomenclature for the LinuxKPI-based DRM ports that correctly reflects the
FreeBSD version the ports are for. This will also allow us to move to dedicated
branches per FreeBSD release and eases porting work.

Functionally, this commit is a no-op as we are not moving to new snapshots.

Reflect the move in UPDATING and MOVED. Users using the graphics/drm-kmod meta
port should not be affected. Direct consumers of the DRM ports shall move, as
in MOVED, as follows:

drm-stable-kmod is drm-fbsd11.2-kmod
drm-next-kmod is drm-fbsd12.0-kmod
drm-devel-kmod is drm-current-kmod

The drm-stable-kmod port can be enabled for amdgpu (for AMD GPUs starting with
the HD7000 series / Tahiti) or i915kms (for Intel APUs starting with HD3000 /
Sandy Bridge) through kld_list in /etc/rc.conf. radeonkms for older AMD GPUs
can be loaded and there are some positive reports if EFI boot is NOT enabled
(similar to amdgpu).
For amdgpu: kld_list="amdgpu"
For Intel: kld_list="/boot/modules/i915kms.ko"
For radeonkms: kld_list="/boot/modules/radeonkms.ko"
Please ensure that all users requiring graphics are members of the
"video" group.
Older generations are supported by the legacy kms modules (radeonkms /
i915kms) in base or by installing graphics/drm-legacy-kmod.
