docs/rp2: Add network information to the rp2 quickref.
Some rp2 boards include WiFi, at least with the very popular Pico W and Pico 2 W. New users frequently ask how to set up WiFi and are confused because it's not covered in the quickref. This commit adds the wlan section, copied and modified with notes from the ESP32 quickref. Signed-off-by: Matt Trentini <matt.trentini@gmail.com>

Once the network is established the :mod:`socket <socket>` module can be used
|
||||
to create and use TCP/UDP sockets as usual, and the ``requests`` module for
|
||||
convenient HTTP requests.
|
||||
|
||||
After a call to ``wlan.connect()``, the device will by default retry to connect
|
||||
**forever**, even when the authentication failed or no AP is in range.
|
||||
``wlan.status()`` will return ``network.STAT_CONNECTING`` in this state until a
|
||||
connection succeeds or the interface gets disabled.
