docs: add recommendation for gpios regarding soft straps

Soft straps, that can be configured by the vendor in the Intel Flash
Image Tool (FIT), can influence some pads' default state. It is possible
to select either a native function or GPIO mode for some pads on
non-server SoCs, while on server SoCs most pads can be controlled.

Thus, add a recommendation to always configure all pads for a board to
guarantee integrity between different board or vendor firmware revisions
where the soft straps might have been changed.
