Import the (Fast) Etherlink XL driver. I'm reasonally confident in its
stability now. ALso modify /sys/conf/files, /sys/i386/conf/GENERIC and /sys/i386/conf/LINT to add entries for the XL driver. Deactivate support for the XL adapters in the vortex driver. LAstly, add a man page. (Also added an MLINKS entry for the ThunderLAN man page which I forgot previously.)
