This commit adds the following default configuration parameters to the example wpa_supplicant.conf in the handbook:
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=1
fast_reauth=1
This is necessary for users to effectively disable, debug, and manage their wireless network connections. These parameters are already present in the example configuration files provided with wpa_supplicant, suggesting they are commonly used and beneficial for a standard setup. Including them in the handbook's basic example will provide a more robust and user-friendly default configuration for wireless networking.
