Add FAQ entry on how Cygwin counters install and update MITM attacks

* faq-setup.xml: Document how Cygwin secures installation and
update against man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks.  Note that
setup embeds a public key to check the signature of setup.ini,
and that setup.ini includes SHA-512 cryptographic hashes.
