treewide: sync with Guide_3DS@1cb52f3dcfef4ec60fa0ca8fcac5570f9c7c0e2e

With a few modifications: - ntrboot flashing pages are completely untouched except 3ds multi console - the other pages are a *complete and utter* mess and the flashers themselves aren't exactly designed for devkits at the moment - Pre-flashed carts are removed from the base ntrboot page - We won't support this for the moment, as they can't ntrboot on devkits. It *can* be reflashed, but explaining that is a little complicated - All troubleshooting for exploits have been scrapped - no uloader troubleshooting for now - Finalizing script is scrapped; thus, finalizing setup was copied as of commit afe7b4af7e9765ab22449f6fea65c5bde4df0956 - troubleshooting related to this is also pulled from this commit; other troubleshooting is still from latest commit as of this writing - Added missed installing-boot9strap-(ntrboot) page
