Mitchell Horne eb87588155 Tweaks to libarchive's upgrade instructions
I would like to use this file as an example of the FREEBSD-upgrade
convention, see D42302. libarchive is picked somewhat arbitrarily as a
longstanding piece of contrib software in FreeBSD.

- Remove SVN references (HEAD/trunk)
- Mention the vendor/libarchive git branch
- Update link to import instructions
- Remove $FreeBSD$

libarchive
The source code is pulled with git:
git clone git://github.com/libarchive/libarchive.git
The git branch for imports is named vendor/libarchive.
For the contrib directory files and directories were pruned by:
sh -c 'for F in `cat FREEBSD-Xlist | grep -v FreeBSD`; do rm -rf ./$F ; done'
You may check if there are any new files that we don't need and add them to
FREEBSD-Xlist.
The instructions for importing new release and merging to main can be found
in the Committers' Guide:
https://docs.freebsd.org/en/articles/committers-guide/#vendor-import-git
To make local changes to libarchive, simply patch and commit to the main
branch. Never make local changes on the vendor branch.
