doc: net: Rewrite network driver documentation
doc/README.drivers.eth seems like a good source for understanding U-Boot's network subsystem, but is only talking about legacy network drivers. This is particularly sad as proper documentation would help in porting drivers over to the driver model. Rewrite the document to describe network drivers in the new driver model world. Most driver callbacks/methods are almost identical in their semantic, but recv() differs in some important details. Also keep some parts of the original text at the end, to help understanding old drivers. Add some hints on how to port drivers over. This also uses the opportunity to reformat the document in reST, on the way moving it into doc/driver-model and adding it into the structure there.
