description:
pkgtools/digest supports SHA3 now
Remove explicit notice that DragonFly defaults to modular-xorg (platform notes
in bootstrap/README.$ should cover such info & we direct reader there? if we
should cover it in the guide)
Indicate that only some of the utilities in the pkgtools category are shown.
Direct user to the "Checking for security vulnerabilities in installed packages"
section.
