svn diff for my changes.

I've had some hard time figuring out Bluetooth headphones support on my laptop's new FreeBSD installation due to conflicting information on various corners. This patch should fix this for future users.

Touching parts: advanced networking (network-bluetooth.html) and sound (sound-setup.html).

Sound-setup.html might need a slight update in regards with modules and what not as well, because parts of it seem rather outdated.

Log:
  Add more information about Bluetooth usage.

  The patch shows how to create a remote device connection and
  how to manage devices in /etc/bluetooth/hosts.  The multimedia
  chapter was extended with a description on how to set up and
  connect a Bluetooth audio device as a sound sink.
  It also adds man page references to man-refs.ent for hcsecd(8)
  and virtual_oss(8), respectively.

  I cleaned up the patch a bit for consistency and proper markup.
