Openbsd instructions give commands with `sudo`

I'm reporting a slight mistake. On the instructions for installing certbot on openbsd, it gives a few commands that use sudo instead of doas.
For example:

sudo certbot certonly --standalone
sudo certbot certonly --webroot
echo "0 0,12 * * * root python -c 'import random; import time; time.sleep(random.random() * 3600)' && sudo certbot renew -q" | sudo tee -a /etc/crontab > /dev/null

Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

Thanks much. I'll pass this along.

I should also mention that the instructions for adding a wildcard domain is unclear.
For example the command pkg_add -cloudflare just gives me pkg_add: bad list oudflare: No such file or directory. I'm don't think packages like this exist on openbsd.

It seems the Certbot team has "internalised" the Certbot website on Github unfortunately.. So the only thing we can do is mention the above and hope for the best instead of trying to suggest a fix in the code ourselves..

By the way, the sudo application should still be available as a separate package on current OpenBSDs.
