doc: samsung: Fix PXE doc for E850-96 board
As stated in PXELINUX doc [1], the PXE configuration file has to be in
the format of "01-MAC-address" for Ethernet connections:
The hardware type (using its ARP "htype" code) and address, all in
lowercase hexadecimal with dash separators. For example, for an
Ethernet (i.e. ARP hardware type "1") with address
"88:99:AA:BB:CC:DD", it would search for the filename
"01-88-99-aa-bb-cc-dd".
Indeed, PXE implementation in U-Boot looks for files like that, as can
be seen from this call chain:
format_mac_pxe()
pxe_mac_path()
pxe_get()
extlinux_pxe_read_bootflow()
Mention the fact that PXE expects the configuration file to be prepended
with "01" in the PXE section of E850-96 documentation. While at it, fix
some other minor issues in PXE section.
