board: native: Update the posix Ethernet driver documentation



Remove the mention of startup script and update the documentation
to reflect the current way of working i.e., using net-setup.sh script
before starting the zephyr.exe process.

  such as 97229 (decimal),  0x17BCD (hex), or 0275715 (octal).

**Ethernet driver**:
  A simple TAP based ethernet driver is provided. The driver will create
  a **zeth** network interface to the host system. One can communicate with
  Zephyr via this network interface. Multiple TAP based network interfaces can
  be created if needed. The IP address configuration can be specified for each
  network interface instance.
  See :kconfig:option:`CONFIG_ETH_NATIVE_POSIX_SETUP_SCRIPT` option for more details.
  The :zephyr:code-sample:`eth-native-posix` sample app provides
  some use examples and more information about this driver configuration.

  Note that this device can only be used with Linux hosts, and that the user
  needs elevated permissions.
  A simple TAP based ethernet driver is provided. The driver expects that the
  **zeth** network interface already exists in the host system. The **zeth**
  network interface can be created by the ``net-setup.sh`` script found in
  the `net-tools`_ zephyr project repository. User can communicate with the
  Zephyr instance via the **zeth** network interface. Multiple TAP based
  network interfaces can be created if needed. The IP address configuration
  can be specified for each network interface instance.
