Here is a proposed diff for updating the keeping-safe docs on firewall
usage, based on bodhi's feedback and suggestions.  The material for
firestarter is still there (slightly modified), and I added in mention
of UFW and simple directions on using Gufw.  Also gave links to the UFW
and Gufw community docs pages which contain valuable information.
Finally there is additional mentioning of using nmap to test ports in a
new section called "Testing the firewall and monitoring network
traffic".  This section can be expanded on in the future if desired.

The serverguide already mentions UFW, so I didn't make any changes in
firewall documentation there.

I hope we can get this approved and committed before the Karmic string
freeze.
