A Debian user suggested adding more network-related keywords to the
ip manpage, so that manpage-scraping and indexing software like
apropos can do a better job of categorizing the programs.

Let's just keep it short and drop out policy routing (since that is part of routing anyway
and drop the (ethernet and more).
