Add documentation for passphrase option.

The wifi-iface actually supports an undocumented option to choose
whether to treat a passphrase as a text passphrase or an encoded
passphrase (like encoded by the wpa_passphrase utility). This patch
documents that functionality.

0 treats the wpa psk as a text passphrase; 1 treats wpa psk as
encoded passphrase. You can generate an encoded passphrase with
the wpa\_passphrase utility. This is especially useful if your
passphrase contains special characters. This option only works
when using mac80211 or atheros type devices.
