Currently the bridge will run in foreground, so you'll have to keep `bbctl run`
active somewhere (tmux is a good option). In the future, a service mode will be
active somewhere (tmux is a good option).

Use crontab to set the bridge up to start on reboot. If you would like logging
add the following entry to your crontab and replace `<bbctl path>` with the location of
bbctl, `<bridge name>` with the name of the bridge, and `<log path>` with the
location of where you would like logs saved:

`@reboot /<path>/bbctl run <bridge name> > /<log path>/<bridge name>.log`

If you do not want logging add the following to your crontab:

`@reboot /<path>/bbctl run <bridge name> > /dev/null`

In the future, a service mode will be
added where the bridge is registered as a systemd or launchd service to be
started automatically by the OS.
