deprecate RIPlf/dev/routed
Per https://wiki.freebsd.org/DeprecationPlan, deprecate RIP in 15.0R, with the intention of removing it in 16.0R. Add a note to the manpages of routed(8), rdisc(8), rtquery(8), route6d(8) and rip6query(8) noting that they will be removed in a future release. RIP has been obsolete for over 20 years and no one is running it on modern networks. If someone really needs RIP, there are alternatives such as 'bird' or 'quagga' available from ports; there is no need to ship it in base. Relnotes: yes
