docs: net: convert two README files to ReST format
There are two README files there with doesn't have a .txt extension nor are at ReST format. In order to help with the docs conversion to ReST, rename those and manually convert them to ReST format. As there are lot more to be done for networking to be part of the documentation body, for now mark those two files with :orphan:, in order to supress a build warning.
