- Update for the new interrupt code on i386 meaning that SMP kernels can

  now run on UP machines, options APIC_IO is now spelled device apic, and
  HT CPUs are now enabled by default.
- Add a 'I386 NOTES' section header to the i386-specific paragraphs.
  Someone with more mdoc fu can suggest a better name if needed.
