    protocols.5: Update the description of /etc/protocols
    
    The reference to the "DARPA Internet" seems not quite
    up to date in 2022, so move that to the HISTORY section.
    
    Mention RFC 2780 and RFC 5237.
    
    Obtained from:  NetBSD
    
    (cherry picked from commit 899edecdbe92f678c3c96572c8877cdbc6763e9a)
