libre: [debootstrap]: man: remove gNewSense
Currently gNewSense doesn't have any releases that are based on Debian versions that are still supported by Debian, so it's not ideal to advertize it without any warnings. This was not replaced by examples using PureOS because debootstraping PureOS is now broken: PureOS changed its repository structure to support packages that are not tied to a specific arhitecture ("Any"), and using their repositories now requires a patch that is only in PureOS version of debootstrap.
