Paul Holzinger 108d2bc430 docs: make CNI removal explicit
The docs were rather vague about the deprecation of CNI, make it clear
that we are going to remove it with 5.0 as we decided to do that in our
planning.

Also while looking at the podman network create docs I noticed
--ipam-driver dhcp was still documented as not supported with netavark
so I fixed that as well.

## `cni` ##
**Note**: The CNI backend is deprecated and will be removed in the next major Podman version 5.0, in preference
of Netavark, see **[podman-network(1)](../docs/source/markdown/podman-network.1.md)** on how to change the backend.
There are a wide variety of different [CNI](https://github.com/containernetworking/cni) network configurations. This
directory just contains an example configuration that can be used as the
basis for your own configuration.
To use this configuration, place it in `/etc/cni/net.d` (or the directory
specified by `cni_config_dir` in your `containers.conf`).
For example a basic network configuration can be achieved with:
```bash
sudo mkdir -p /etc/cni/net.d
curl -qsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/containers/podman/main/cni/87-podman-bridge.conflist | sudo tee /etc/cni/net.d/87-podman-bridge.conflist
```
Dependent upon your CNI configuration, you will need to install as a minimum the `port` and `bridge` [CNI plugins](https://github.com/containernetworking/plugins) into `/opt/cni/bin` (or the directory specified by `cni_plugin_dir` in containers.conf). Please refer to the [CNI](https://github.com/containernetworking) project page in GitHub for more information.
