Initial import of documentation for net80211 interface code.

Of particular interest here is the ieee80211_radiotap(9) man page.

TODO: Flesh out ieee80211_node.9, ieee80211_proto.9.

+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+collection of functions are used to manage node lists within the software
+802.11 stack.
+These lists are typically used for implementing host-mode AP functionality,
+or providing signal quality information about neighbouring nodes.
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr ieee80211 9 ,
+.Xr ifnet 9
+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Nm
+series of functions first appeared in
+.Nx 1.5 ,
+and were later ported to
+.Fx 4.6 .
+.Sh AUTHORS
+This man page was written by
