Add a new section for specific areas requiring additional testing

Browse source 
prior to the release, and populate with two items:

- Potential problems with if_ie, if_le, and if_wl from Sam Leffler's
  API changes.  He'd like to see immediate testing and feedback regarding
  these drivers.

- Additional testing for the vlan code, which was changed in a variety
  of ways late in the development cycle.

Additional submissions welcome.

<td>Changes made to the ethernet driver interfaces required sweeping
API changes across all ethernet device drivers. While these
changes are largely mechanical, they were not tested for three less
frequently used interface drivers: if_ie, if_le, and if_wl. They
each require testing (and probably fixing) prior to 5.0-RELEASE.
If you have access to devices that use these drivers, please perform
local testing and provide feedback to Sam Leffler.</td>

<td>Changes to the network device driver interfaces and introduction
of m_tags has changed the way in which vlans are implemented in
5.0. These changes require additional testing. If you make use
if the vlan behavior in local configurations, please test them
with recent 5.0 snapshots and provide feedback to Sam Leffler.</td>
