Explain what fastd is #22

Neither the readme, the wiki, nor the docs answer the question, “What is fastd?” I've read most of them and I still don't know. I suggest adding an introduction section or just the sentence, “fastd is ____.” at the top.

The man page states:

fastd is a very small VPN daemon which tunnels IP packets and Ethernet frames over UDP. It supports various modern encryption and authentication schemes and can be used in many different network topologies (1:1, 1:n, meshed)
