pdf: Allow breaking pages in version-check and kernel configuration
They are very long <screen> or <note>.  By default they are attributed
"keep-together.within-column = always", override it to allow line break.

Fixes #5336.

83e616f79e Reformat kernel configuuration options.
A couple of the newer kernel options overflow past 80 columns on
the kernel page.  It's not optimal, but insert newlines for these
options.

Also reorder the options to to same ordeer as they appear in
menuconfig and add some blank lines between major setions for
clarity.

kernel: Some adjustments
- Mention NVME.
- Mention PAE (CONFIG_HIGHMEM64G) for 32-bit.
- Don't repeat the link to BLFS kernel config index twice on SysV.
  And don't display the long URL for it.
- Emphasis that BLFS UEFI kernel config is needed even if you'll use the
  UEFI bootloader of the host distro.

Revert "kernel: Use <caution> for make defconfig and..."

"Don't change anything enabled by defconfig" seems too strong.

Revert "Suggest make localmodconfig for kernel"
This reverts commit de679165f9.

localmodconfig does not work very well.  It can only *un*select things
already enabled as modules if the module is not loaded by the host.  It
won't select anything new, nor unselect unneeded things already set to
"y" instead of "m".

Maybe you think we can copy .config from a "mainstream" distro
(producing a highly modular kernel) and use "make localmodconfig", but
when we tested it with a Debian host kernel config, the resulted kernel
refuses to boot.

"make allmodconfig && make localmodconfig" does not work well either:
"allmodconfig" selects many things as y (these thing are not available
as a module) but "localmodconfig" fails to unselect them.

de679165f9 Suggest make localmodconfig for kernel
This is less generic than defconfig, and you can then tell
not to tweak options...

kernel: Recommend to disable CONFIG_EXPERT
Let's not encourage users to try tricky things and shoot their own foot.

For systemd, if CONFIG_EXPERT is disable, CONFIG_FHANDLE will be enabled
automatically.  So there is no need to enable CONFIG_EXPERT and then set
CONFIG_FHANDLE manually.

arm64: grub cfg: some improvements
- Ensure /boot/efi is created before mounting ESP.
- Delete already existing "LFS" boot entry in efivar.
- Umount /sys/firmware/efi/efivars after running efibootmgr (or it
  causing troubles in "umount /sys").
- Mention "-e 3" which is needed for some UEFI implementation.

kernel: adjust the instruction for mounting /boot
LFS and the host may use different /boot configuration, so do not assume
they'll share a /boot partition (two different /boot partition or only one
with separate /boot are possible).

16cd09633e Adjust instructions for /dev/shm when creating virtual filesystems.
Some host create /dev/shm as a tmpfs.  Some have is as
a symlink to a location in another directory.  This
change handles both cases.

The change to the sysV bootscripts now creates /dev/shm
as a separate tmpfs from /run.  This makes LFS sysV and
systemd versions treat /dev/shm the same.
