doc: split FreeBSD build instructions out of build-unix.md

Browse Source 
docs: Linked to the 'Building on FreeBSD' section of the Unix guide where it lists BSD specific guides.

Created a FreeBSD build guide (doc/build-freebsd.md).

Added in warning about the version of 'gdb' installed by default.

Removed the FreeBSD build instructions now that they have their own guide (doc/build-freebsd.md).

Updated the sentence to refer to the BSD guides in the 'doc' directory for more specific BSD build instructions.

Minor grammatical fix.

Building on FreeBSD
--------------------
(Updated as of FreeBSD 11.0)
Clang is installed by default as `cc` compiler, this makes it easier to get
started than on [OpenBSD](build-openbsd.md). Installing dependencies:
pkg install autoconf automake libtool pkgconf
pkg install boost-libs openssl libevent
pkg install gmake
You need to use GNU make (`gmake`) instead of `make`.
(`libressl` instead of `openssl` will also work)
For the wallet (optional):
./contrib/install_db4.sh `pwd`
setenv BDB_PREFIX $PWD/db4
Then build using:
./autogen.sh
./configure --disable-wallet # OR
./configure BDB_CFLAGS="-I${BDB_PREFIX}/include" BDB_LIBS="-L${BDB_PREFIX}/lib -ldb_cxx"
gmake
*Note on debugging*: The version of `gdb` installed by default is [ancient and considered harmful](https://wiki.freebsd.org/GdbRetirement).
It is not suitable for debugging a multi-threaded C++ program, not even for getting backtraces. Please install the package `gdb` and
use the versioned gdb command e.g. `gdb7111`.
