doc: add tutorial on how to use netxlite (#519)

The main tutorial will be the one at https://github.com/ooni/probe-cli/pull/506, but
it's useful to also document the primitives used by measurex.

So, here's the companion tutorial, which explains how to use the
features in netxlite to perform measurements.

This work is part of https://github.com/ooni/ooni.org/issues/361.

# Tutorial: using the netxlite networking library
Netxlite is the underlying networking library we use in OONI. In
most cases, network experiments do not use netxlite directly, rather
they use abstractions built on top of netxlite. Though, you need to
know about netxlite if you need to modify these abstractions.
For this reason, this chapter shows the basic netxlite primitives
that we use when writing higher-level measurement primitives.
