Make the introductory section of the README file use the same style as
the introductory README section of the libpcap README file, giving information about anonymous CVS and other additional information. Update to note that non-patch mail should be sent to "tcpdump-workers@tcpdump.org", and that patches should be sent to "patches@tcpdump.org". Merge in changes from the tcpdump 3.5 branch: "\f(CW" doesn't work on all systems - which appears to cause a subsequent "\fP" to revert to the font from which *roff last switched, which is often an italic or boldface font. Use "\fR" instead of "\fP" to undo a "\f(CW". and other changes not in the main line.
