Hmm, we might want to hold off on removing references to freebsd-update.  First, 15.0
has to keep freebsd-update (and probably future releases) to permit updating older
jails (e.g. jails running 14.x).  Second, markj@ has been looking at adding a pkgbase
backend for freebsd-update so that users could still use the freebsd-update UI, but
it would use pkg instead of bspatch under the hood for 15.0 and later.
