Extcap - more documentation please

Could the folks that now anything about extcap please add some more
documentation, currently we just have the api doc, an old SharkFest
presentation and the code as far as I know.

Questions have come up on Ask Wireshark from time to time which seem to
lead to an answer of "use extcap", but when there's hardly any
documentation to point folks to it's no wonder they aren't aware of it.

As I see it we need at least a mention in the User\Dev Guide, something on
the Wiki, and a bit more in the api doc.

The api doc also doesn't appear in the list of manpages (
https://www.wireshark.org/docs/man-pages/) but I'm not sure if that's
1.12.x or 1.99.x.
