dhcpcd and wpa_supplicant #488

Description

@fosslinux

The network section main page has a section "dhcpcd". IMO, this should be moved out into a subpage just like the rest of the network handlers are.

In addition, when I set up my most recent void system, I had trouble linking wpa_supplicant with dhcpcd and just relied on my other system's configuration to make sure I got it right.

It requires either the linking or copying 10-wpa_supplicant to /usr/libexec/dhcpcd-hooks from /usr/share/dhcpcd/hooks. I believe this is void-specific and belongs in the handbook, especially given that void has dhcpcd enabled by default. This is in Arch's Wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dhcpcd#10-wpa_supplicant) but has different paths to void.
