Patch for ifconfig(8) adding the dotted format for MAC addresses

The attached patch extends ifconfig(8) with the dotted format for MAC addresses usually employed by Cisco products running Cisco IOS and its descendents. Let me know if this should be run through a review process rather than as a PR.

Make patch compatible with commit d1cd0344f7b7d81beda04c3cb8cfee99351c3eb8.
For ifconfig.8, use .Cm instead of .Sy.
