Patch for the ieee80211(9) man page update

Hi,

NetBSD and FreeBSD share a common code base for basic ieee80211 functionality. Many functions are available in both operating systems. This patch aims to update FreeBSD ieee80211(9) manual page with the information from NetBSD ieee80211(9) man page.

With this patch;

* SYNOPSIS section has been updated to include more function declarations
* DESCRIPTION section has been updated to include function definitions.
* HISTORY added
* AUTHORS added

Patch was generated against the ieee80211.9 man page included in the FreeBSD-CURRENT (12.0 as of today).

ieee80211.9.fni -> working copy
ieee80211.9.current -> original file from the "head" branch
