doc: bootstd: specify CONFIG_BOOTSTD_DEFAULTS provides network features when NET=y

Browse Source 
In the past, we only had one network stack which was called NET. The
network features were enabled for the legacy (and then only) networking
stack since commit 22353fa6b5 ("bootstd: Add some default filesystems
and commands"). Then instead on relying on NET legacy stack for enabling
networking features, the dependencies were (mostly) changed to depend on
CMD_NET in commit a0c739c184 ("boot: Create a common BOOT_DEFAULTS for
distro and bootstd"). Then a new stack (lwIP) appeared, then CMD_NET was
made available with this new stack in commit 98ad145db6 ("net: lwip:
add DHCP support and dhcp commmand") making the networking features
possible to enable and finally commit f1e978fd54 ("boot: Update tests
around network symbols in BOOT_DEFAULTS_CMDS") made it explicit that we
need *a* network stack to enable some networking features.

Align the bootstd documentation with what's actually implemented as
Kconfig dependencies. Note that BOOTSTD_DEFAULTS selects BOOT_DEFAULTS
which selects BOOT_DEFAULTS_CMDS which then selects network features.
The CMDLINE symbol needs to be enabled as well for BOOT_DEFAULTS to
select BOOT_DEFAULTS_CMDS, but I don't think we need to go that far into
explaining what's required to enable some commands.

You should probably also enable `CONFIG_BOOTSTD_DEFAULTS`, which provides
