Description

Fixes: #10742

This change corrects the misleading comment regarding RFC 5970 in the PxeBcDxe
module.

The previous comment incorrectly suggested that the Boot File URL option in RFC 5970 limits the download protocol. While the RFC allows various protocols, the current implementation only supports TFTP.

This patch updates the comment to clarify the current situation.

No functional code changes were made; this is a documentation fix.
