networking.7 : create network quickstart guide

Now that the handbook has been moved to ports, I think it's very nice to
have a network quickstart guide in-band, in base, in the system manual.
If the user uses any of the following terms "man -k
{network,networking,wifi,quickstart}" this page will come up, which is I
think a very common use case for new users.

Currently, this document explains connecting to a basic Ethernet
network, a basic wifi network, scanning for wifi networks, and airplane
mode, as well as linking to other sections, including the handbook
