ixgbe: Document how to enable NBASE-T support
[ Upstream commit 271225f ] Commit a296d66 ("ixgbe: Add ethtool support to enable 2.5 and 5.0 Gbps support") introduced suppression of the advertisement of NBASE-T speeds by default, according to Todd Fujinaka to accommodate customers with network switches which could not cope with advertised NBASE-T speeds, as posted in the E1000-devel mailing list: https://sourceforge.net/p/e1000/mailman/message/37106269/ However, the suppression was not documented at all, nor was how to enable NBASE-T support. Properly document the NBASE-T suppression and how to enable NBASE-T support.
