docs: networking: device drivers: convert ti/tlan.txt to ReST

- add SPDX header;
- adjust titles and chapters, adding proper markups;
- mark tables as such;
- mark code blocks and literals as such;
- adjust identation, whitespaces and blank lines where needed;
- add to networking/index.rst.

II. Driver Options
==================
1. You can append debug=x to the end of the insmod line to get
debug messages, where x is a bit field where the bits mean
debug messages, where x is a bit field where the bits mean
the following:
==== =====================================
0x01 Turn on general debugging messages.
0x02 Turn on receive debugging messages.
0x04 Turn on transmit debugging messages.
0x08 Turn on list debugging messages.
==== =====================================
2. You can append aui=1 to the end of the insmod line to cause
the adapter to use the AUI interface instead of the 10 Base T
interface. This is also what to do if you want to use the BNC
the adapter to use the AUI interface instead of the 10 Base T
interface. This is also what to do if you want to use the BNC
connector on a TLAN based device. (Setting this option on a
device that does not have an AUI/BNC connector will probably
cause it to not function correctly.)

5. You have to use speed=X duplex=Y together now. If you just
do "insmod tlan.o speed=100" the driver will do Auto-Neg.
To force a 10Mbps Half-Duplex link do "insmod tlan.o speed=10
To force a 10Mbps Half-Duplex link do "insmod tlan.o speed=10
duplex=1".
6. If the driver is built into the kernel, you can use the 3rd
and 4th parameters to set aui and debug respectively. For
example:
example::
ether=0,0,0x1,0x7,eth0
ether=0,0,0x1,0x7,eth0
This sets aui to 0x1 and debug to 0x7, assuming eth0 is a
supported TLAN device.
The bits in the third byte are assigned as follows:
0x01 = aui
0x02 = use half duplex
0x04 = use full duplex
0x08 = use 10BaseT
0x10 = use 100BaseTx
==== ===============
0x01 aui
0x02 use half duplex
0x04 use full duplex
0x08 use 10BaseT
0x10 use 100BaseTx
==== ===============
You also need to set both speed and duplex settings when forcing
speeds with kernel-parameters.
speeds with kernel-parameters.
ether=0,0,0x12,0,eth0 will force link to 100Mbps Half-Duplex.
7. If you have more than one tlan adapter in your system, you can
use the above options on a per adapter basis. To force a 100Mbit/HD
link with your eth1 adapter use:
insmod tlan speed=0,100 duplex=0,1
link with your eth1 adapter use::
insmod tlan speed=0,100 duplex=0,1
Now eth0 will use auto-neg and eth1 will be forced to 100Mbit/HD.
Note that the tlan driver supports a maximum of 8 adapters.
