doc: afsd -settime and -nosettime are obsolete

Browse Source 
Update the afsd man page -settime and -nosettime options, which are obsolete
and no longer have any effect.  Use the same wording as the other obsolete
options in the afsd man page.  Keep the recommendations to use the time keeping
daemons provided by the operating system to maintain the system time.

This is enabled by default. It prevents the Cache Manager from
synchronizing its clock with the clock on a server machine selected at
random by checking the time on the server machine every five minutes.
This is the recommended behavior; instead of the AFS Cache Manager, the
Network Time Protocol Daemon should be used to synchronize the system
time.
