[PATCH 1/2] wireless-regdb: Update regulatory document references for Taiwan (TW)

[Chen-Yu Tsai]

Taiwan's Ministry of Transportation and Communications updated its
frequency allocation rules again on 2017/02/22. The amended articles
are not related to this database, but the link should be kept up to
date, as the old one is no longer accessible.

Taiwan's regulatory body, NCC, published its updated technical
regulatory standard for low-power radio frequency devices, LP0002.
The URL has not changed. The new standard opens up more bandwidth
for 5g U-NII WiFi and 60g WiGig devices. Transmission power for
5.25 ~ 5.35 GHz is also increased, but this was already covered
in commit 9a618d9b5fb2 ("wireless-regdb: Update 5 GHz rules for
Taiwan (TW) to follow US").

This patch updates the link and comments for the rules and standards,
and also adds inline comments referencing the governing section of the
LP0002 standard for each band.
