[pve-devel] [PATCH docs] Add hint about Etcher to Install from USB

Since version 1.5.0 Etcher reports that PVE ISOs are not bootable even though
it works without further problems.
While I'm resolving this we might want to give users a hint.

 Download Etcher from https://etcher.io , select the ISO and your USB Drive.
 
+Current Etcher versions report "It looks like this is not a bootable
+image" when selecting Proxmox VE ISO images. This can safely be ignored.
+Flashing will work nonetheless.

 If this doesn't work, alternatively use the OSForensics USB
 installer from http://www.osforensics.com/portability.html
