intro.3:
	Remove Xr references to libc, libcurses, libcompat, libkvm,
	libl, libtermcap and liby since they do not exists as man
	pages under those names.

	Add section number to libmp Xr reference (which do have a man
	page).
	Add libmp description - from libmp(3).

picobsd.8:
	Remove Xr reference to etherboot since it does not have a man
	page at all. Add reference to the location of the port instead.
