[PATCH] Adding <acronym> elements to wlan Handbook section

[Murray Stokely]

In that case this looks great to me.  I agree with Manolis that adding
the role="definition" for the first instance of each acronym is
helpful.  I really thought we were already doing this in parts of the
Handbook, but I may be misremembering.
