-doc tree upgraded last weekend

>Description:

Originally pointed out by:

mh@cs.tu-berlin.de

>How-To-Repeat:

Under handbook/cutting-edge, the upgrading section refers to a cvsupit
package that is broken.  Change the link to a working cvsupit.  Also
change the language to show that cvsupit helps customize the supfile
and cvsup behavior.

While I'm here, delete the information about "grabbing on-the-fly
tarballs."  ftp.freebsd.org no longer has this functionality.
