Created attachment 190766
  --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=190766&action=edit
diff of docs changes

The docs don't mention that kgdb is not installed in a directory in PATH so it
took me a while to figure out what the docs were talking about. Eventually I
ran `find / -name "*kgdb*` and discovered /lib/userexec/kgdb which is the only
such binary installed on my system on 12-CURRENT. The location of the debug
kernel was also incorrect in the docs and that took my a while to figure out.
These two changes allowed me to finally debug my kernel panics on 12-CURRENT.
If there are better solutions or changes  to be made, let me know. Thank you!
