bpf/docs: Update README for most recent vmtest.sh

Browse Source 
Since commit 40b09653b197 ("selftests/bpf: Adjust vmtest.sh to use local
kernel configuration") the vmtest.sh script no longer downloads a kernel
configuration but uses the local, in-repository one.
This change updates the README, which still mentions the old behavior.

The script tries to ensure that the tests are run with the same environment as they
would be run post-submit in the CI used by the Maintainers.
This script downloads a suitable Kconfig and VM userspace image from the system used by
the CI. It builds the kernel (without overwriting your existing Kconfig), recompiles the
bpf selftests, runs them (by default ``tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_progs``) and
saves the resulting output (by default in ``~/.bpf_selftests``).
