0e3359406f Correct a few entries that were mistakenly changed which would adversely 
affect users of 8.x and prior by noting separate rc.conf(5) entries for
8.x and earlier or 9.x and later.

c4048df496 - ipv6_enable is deprecated; use ip6_prefer instead. 
- ipv6_ifconfig_{interface} is deprecated in favor of
  ifconfig_{interface}_ipv6; additionally, the latter requires the
  specification of 'inet6'.

3441846d33 In wireless part: 
- Add some noise levels different from 0 since 7.X and above should
  correctly display these informations;
- Stick the ifconfig(8)'s inet part at the end of each command line.
  The inet setting does an implicit "up" to the interface before
  setting the rest of parameters leading sometimes to issues.  This is
  a bug, marking the interface up last is a workaround to that
  issue.  This change nothing to the doc since the parameters order
  should not be important, but may reduce the problems for the readers
  using cut&paste. [1]
