Documentation: admin-guide: add earlycon documentation for RISC-V

Kernels booting on RISC-V can specify "earlycon" with no options on
the Linux command line, and the generic DT earlycon support will query
the "chosen/stdout-path" property (if present) to determine which
early console device to use.  Document this appropriately in the
admin-guide.
