sysutils/cpu-microcode-rc: Update pkg-descr and pkg-message
- Note that the early loading is now available for AMD systems after
  2024-02-22 src snapshot, 34467bd76.
- Do not refer to old port names
- Refer to sysutils/cpu-microcode-* so we are covered if any new CPU
  microcode ports are added to the tree

An RC script for one of two methods to update CPU microcode.
Early loading, which does not require this RC script, is usually the preferred
method because updates are applied before the kernel performs CPU feature
detection. The other method, which requires this RC script, is late loading.
AMD systems running FreeBSD prior to 2024-02-22 snapshot 34467bd76 only support
late loading.
CPU microcode data can be installed from one of the sysutils/cpu-microcode-*
ports.
