docs: networking: convert phonet.txt to ReST

- add SPDX header;
- adjust title markup;
- use copyright symbol;
- add notes markups;
- mark code blocks and literals as such;
- adjust identation, whitespaces and blank lines where needed;
- add to networking/index.rst.

==================
- Packet sockets work well together with Linux socket filters, thus you also

WARNING:
When polling a connected pipe socket for writability, there is an
intrinsic race condition whereby writability might be lost between the
polling and the writing system calls. In this case, the socket will
block until write becomes possible again, unless non-blocking mode
is enabled.
.. Warning:
When polling a connected pipe socket for writability, there is an
intrinsic race condition whereby writability might be lost between the
polling and the writing system calls. In this case, the socket will
block until write becomes possible again, unless non-blocking mode
is enabled.
The pipe protocol provides two socket options at the SOL_PNPIPE level:
PNPIPE_ENCAP accepts one integer value (int) of:
PNPIPE_ENCAP_NONE: The socket operates normally (default).
PNPIPE_ENCAP_NONE:
The socket operates normally (default).
PNPIPE_ENCAP_IP: The socket is used as a backend for a virtual IP
PNPIPE_ENCAP_IP:
The socket is used as a backend for a virtual IP
interface. This requires CAP_NET_ADMIN capability. GPRS data
support on Nokia modems can use this. Note that the socket cannot
be reliably poll()'d or read() from while in this mode.
PNPIPE_IFINDEX is a read-only integer value. It contains the
interface index of the network interface created by PNPIPE_ENCAP,
or zero if encapsulation is off.
PNPIPE_IFINDEX
is a read-only integer value. It contains the
interface index of the network interface created by PNPIPE_ENCAP,

PNPIPE_HANDLE is a read-only integer value. It contains the underlying
identifier ("pipe handle") of the pipe. This is only defined for
socket descriptors that are already connected or being connected.
