ofwboot(8): add some practical examples
The system you want to boot into the single user mode is probably the default installation, so a simple "boot -s" is enough for that. Don't be redundant and scary. Also provide an example that uses full syntax for the kernel name. It is confusingly similar to the OFW syntax for boot-device yet different. That example also demonstrates how one might test a different version of ofwboot.
