NAPI: kconfig prompt and deleted doc file

Browse Source 
- make the kconfig NAPI option prompt consistent across all net drivers
  (other than EXPERIMENTAL; can it now be removed also, or is the new
  napi_struct implementation now EXPERIMENTAL ?)
- remove comment about the now-deleted NAPI_HOWTO.txt file
- clean up typos in Tulip NAPI & Interrupt Mitigation

Use HW to reduce RX interrupts. Not strict necessary since NAPI reduces
RX interrupts but itself. Although this reduces RX interrupts even at
low levels traffic at the cost of a small latency.
