Patch to add /etc/default/freeradius to debian package

[Matthew Newton]

Hi,

Another simple patch - this one adds /etc/default/freeradius to
the debian package to allow daemon options to be easily set.

I sent the patch to Debian and it was included a year or so ago
(closed debian bug #564716), but not yet in the main distribution.

Cheers!

Matthew

    Add /etc/default/freeradius to debian package
    
    This gives an easy way to supply options to the daemon when
    starting it using the init.d script.
