[PATCH] PPPoL2TP: Add more code snippets

[Samuel Thibault]

The existing documentation was not telling that one has to create a PPP
channel and a PPP interface to get PPPoL2TP data offloading working.

Also, tunnel switching was not described, so that people were thinking
it was not supported, while it actually is.
