Patch adding an eduroam configuration example to wpa_supplicant.conf.5

eduroam is an international roaming service used across many universities around the world. Most universities provide no FreeBSD installers to automatically connect to eduroam. I think that we would benefit from documenting a tested configuration to the wpa_supplicant.conf(5) manual page. It just makes FreeBSD a little bit more user-friendly.

Changes:
 * Bump the last modification date.
 * Add an eduroam example configuration to the examples section.
 * While here: use spaces instead of tabs consistently in the examples of network configurations.

Looks good to me.  You have a commit bit, right?  If it's a ports bit and you need a src or doc committer blessing, consider it blessed.

Unfortunately, I am not a committer, so I cannot commit on my own... ;)

Oh, I was confused by your @FreeBSD address and beastie orb :-).  I will go ahead and commit the patch, thanks.
