[PATCH] net: Reinstate '-net nic, model=help' output as documented in man page

[David Woodhouse]

From: David Woodhouse <dwmw@amazon.co.uk>

While refactoring the NIC initialization code, I broke '-net nic,model=help'
which no longer outputs a list of available NIC models.

Fixes: 2cdeca04adab ("net: report list of available models according to 
platform")
