net: fix documentation for interface dependencies
The network script had a separate case for handling network interface dependencies using variables of the form rc_before/after/use/need/provide_ifname. This is unnecessary since openrc already supports rc_net_ifname_need/use/before/after/provide. This commit updates the documentation to use this more generally supported form.
