Ok, I have added a "Personal Area Networking" section with an example of a
PANU client. I'll continue to work on a NAP (or GN) section as I work out
how best to do that, but if anybody wants to do that in the meantime,
it is basically:

        ifconfig tap0 create
        ifconfig bridge0 create
        brconfig bridge0 add tap0 add eth0 up
        btpand -d ubt0 -s NAP -i tap0

btpand needs to be run after sdpd in the boot sequence, so I'll have to
make an rc.d script for it rather than use the ifconfig.tap0 file.
