net: fix documentation of struct scm_timestamping

The scm_timestamping struct may return multiple non-zero fields, e.g.
when both software and hardware RX timestamping is enabled, or when the
SO_TIMESTAMP(NS) option is combined with SCM_TIMESTAMPING and a false
software timestamp is generated in the recvmsg() call in order to always
return a SCM_TIMESTAMP(NS) message.

The structure can return up to three timestamps. This is a legacy

Note that if the SO_TIMESTAMP or SO_TIMESTAMPNS option is enabled
together with SO_TIMESTAMPING using SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE, a false
software timestamp will be generated in the recvmsg() call and passed
in ts[0] when a real software timestamp is missing. This happens also
on hardware transmit timestamps.
