Adjust the carefully prepared list of changes for the 15.1 release:
- reduce the list of driver updates to the ones we actually ship.
Mediatek was in a different category anyway.
- adjust some descriptions and add notes to Realtek drivers that
there are known issues.

Move pkgbase changes to a new section at the start of the release
notes. This avoids conflating ports and pkgbase changes (which we
should avoid, since some users are already confused about the
relationship between pkgbase and ports), and provides important
information which might require user action earlier in the release
notes.
Be more explicit about when user action is and isn't required.
Remove "pkgbase" from user-facing documentation ("base system packages"
is the preferred user-facing terminology).
Suggest that people wanting to use installworld/installkernel should
depkgbasify, rather than suggesting DESTDIR=/. Overriding this check
is basically guaranteed to break the system, and should never be done;
it's only there in case of some sort of extraordinary situation where
the system can't be repaired any other way.

Remove an item about ec2-small and cloud-init which is included in
the following entry.
Add an item about ec2-small having firstboot_pkgs turned off by
default; this change speeds up the boot process by 6 seconds by not
installing zero packages.
15.1-RC1 builds started on May 22, 2026.
Also belatedly note that BETA3 builds started on May 15, 2026.

14.4 and 15.1 support little-endian pSeries. 15.0 has boot panic due to
bug in SLOF, but it should be reclassified as QEMU pSeries instead of
IBM.
