Canoeboot's version doesn't handle vendor files like
the Libreboot version, but the setmac syntax is the same.

Licensing is already mentioned in the source code
for nvmutil. Putting it in the documentation just
means that it'll go out of date over time, as it
already has; instead of updating it, remove it.
Documentation is under the GNU licensing that Canoeboot
documentation uses.

reference the platform option needed in ifdtool, on some newer
platforms; canoeboot doesn't have anything needing it, but this
is generic nvmutil instructions, and nvmutil is compatible
with gbe regions of many platforms

make canoeboot a truly GNU FSDG compliant coreboot distro,
by removing all overly positive reference to Libreboot;
what remains is technical in nature, so as to provide
historical context since Canoeboot is a fork of Libreboot.
I've stated before that I wish to take a more neutral tone
toward the FSF, in contrast to the *coldboot war* of 2023
when GNU Boot started.
Canoeboot was heavily linking to Libreboot, even going so far
as to call itself "inferior" and tell the reader to use
Libreboot.
From now on, Canoeboot will be maintained as though I actually
believed in FSF propoganda. I don't, but its users do. Treat
them with respect. My reason for providing Canoeboot is
precisely that I wish for such people to have a high quality
coreboot distro, much unlike the inferior *GNU Boot* project;
inferior because to this day, it's still based on very old
Libreboot, with not much changed (of any real substance)
relative to the Libreboot 20220710 release on which it forked.
In general, I've also found a lot of stragglers from when
Canoeboot started, where paragraphs referred to Libreboot that
should have actually referred to Canoeboot, or paragraphs
with Libreboot-specific information that does not make sense
in the Canoeboot project e.g. references to vendor scripts.
The resulting canoeboot.org will now look no different to any
typical reader than a typical FSF-aligned project.
There is a next stage to this, which will become apparent to
everyone if I have my way.
