Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!

* Definitions for the interface between the generic PPP code

* A PPP channel provides a way for the generic PPP code to send

* Packets are stored in sk_buffs and have the 2-byte PPP protocol
* number at the start, but not the address and control bytes.
