wpapcap2john: Look up MAC vendor id, add to GECOS field

This is for "single" mode use. Some other cap/pcap tools could use this technique as well.

We could include a default run/oui.txt (currently 3.9 MB but compresses to 1.1 MB) and add a Makefile target for manually updating that file.

So we added the file, but didn't start using it. Not good. I think we shouldn't have added the file until having code to use it. Should we perhaps drop the file from the tree for now (unfortunately, it will continue to occupy .git space anyway, but at least it wouldn't be in releases and packages) or are you going to complete this issue before our next release, @magnumripper? I think we should do one of these things before the release.

So many ideas, so little time. I really like this idea, will try to complete it soon-ish or otherwise drop it (BTW that Makefile target could still download it).

I did that in #5410.
