[pcap-ng-format] Need to decide on the official name for this file format, and stick to it

The document generally uses the word "pcapng" to describe the file
format, but until today used "pcap-ng" in the introduction.

It would be nice to stick to one name, at least within the document. I
just don't know what the official name is. :)

Right now it's "pcapng". Does anyone mind it staying that?

(as an aside, some web sites use "PCAP-NG" (all caps), or "PcapNg" or
other variations)
