[Docs] Add info about how multicast is treated by fw drivers
This patch adds info about how multicast traffic is treated by
openvswitch and iptables based firewall drivers.
Patch [1] was trying to fix behaviour of OVS based driver to make
it similar to how iptables drivers works but it introduced bug [2]
which we wasn't able to fix without basically disabling what [1] did
for some ports on the compute nodes.
So based on that we decided to revert [1] - it is done in [3] and to
document different behaviour between those 2 firewall drivers which is
done by this patch.
