- Copy stable/10 (r259064) to releng/10.0 as part of the

A lot of people may want to submit PRs from systems that are not
connected to the Internet or systems that do not have a correctly
configured email subsystem. Now that the send-pr web interface has
antispam protection, mention that it is ok to use it for submitting
problem reports.

Don't allow the user to change the subject; instead, always generate
it from the Synopsis field. There's no reason for the subject to be
different, since all that does is cause confusion. Users may get
confused because they may think the subject and synopsis are supposed
to be different, and developers may get confused because it may look
like there are two different problems.

Put the originator's full name in the From and Reply-to fields, and
stick their username (which sendmail will make into an e-mail address)
inside '<>'. Sendmail will still DTRT with this, and it conveniently
puts the submitter's name and e-mail address on one line, just like it
should be after "Submitted by" in a commit message.

Add two new classes of problem reports primarily for the Ports Collection:

- update: For submitting non-maintainer updates/changes
- maintainer-update: For submitting maintainer updates/changes

The intent is to make it easier to spot maintainer sactioned or submitted
updates to ports though it might also be useful for userland code that is
maintained by someone that is not a FreeBSD committer.

19039 19-Oct-1996 joerg

Various fixes and FreeBSD modifications:

. remove the blubber about `submitter-id's from the man page, we don't
use them,
. use REPLY_TO or REPLYTO in preference over LOGNAME as the value for
the Reply-To address (closes PRs 1471 and its duplicates 1472 and 1823),
. don't abuse ~/.signature as ORGANIZATION, this is almost always
useless blunder,
. actually list the Categories again, instead of xrefing to ``see
above'' (closes PR 1835),
. check the Synopsis field for being not empty,
. make the mail Subject the same as Synopsis if left blank (closes
PR 1209).

The remaining open send-pr related PRs (184 and its duplicate 1047,
and 1415) are pilot errors or local hardware problems.
