chore[docs]: Recommend ethernet tether over port forwarding for VH-109 (#1847)
closes #1825 The new radio has four ethernet ports, and one dedicated port for the DS. There's no reason for teams to tether to the roborio via USB-B, and tethering via radio will provide more realistic match conditions. Therefore, recommend tethering via radio.

## Port Forwarding

:::{note}

If you are using a VH-109 radio (2025 and later, excluding China and Taiwan), you should not use port forwarding. Instead, tether to the dedicated DS ethernet port on the VH-109. The VH-109 does not exhibit the issues found in the OM5P radio with multiple ports, and with a dedicated DS port, it provides more realistic match conditions and removes the need to tether over USB.

If you would like to access your Ethernet-connected vision device from a computer when tethered to the USB port on the roboRIO, you can use [WPILib's](https://docs.wpilib.org/en/stable/docs/networking/networking-utilities/portforwarding.html) `PortForwarder`.
