User's Guide: clarify jtag_rclk advice
Not all cores and boards support adaptive clocking, so qualify all advice to use it to depend on core and board support. It's primarily ARM cores which support this; and many of the newer ones (like Cortex-M series) don't. Signed-off-by: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>
