Gleb Chesnokov df124ce643 qla2x00t: Update QLogic target documentation ...

The legacy and newer QLogic guides disagree about the default driver,
supported adapters, NPIV, sysfs layout and module lifecycle. The
HOWTO also carries SVN, kernel replacement, firmware flashing and
discovery commands that can disrupt active storage.

Commit 7aade0a109 ("Makefile: Make the qla2x00t-32gbit driver
the default QLogic FC driver") selected the newer tree by default.
Commit a788a4efd7 ("Newer version of QLogic target driver with 16G
(26xx/83xx) support") added that tree and disabled legacy NPIV target
callbacks. Commit 08e532715d ("Remove procfs support") removed the
old management path.

Use each qla2xxx_pci_tbl[] and qla_os.c for hardware and firmware facts.
Document QLA_32GBIT=no, current per-port sysfs state, reset effects
and the matched qla2xxx_scst and qla2x00tgt modules. Replace unsafe
generic recipes with repository or vendor sources and mark every HBA,
fabric, target and backing-device operation as live.
