linux: clarify help text for 'custom tarball'

Browse source 
The help text for Linux option 'Custom tarball' only refers to ftp or
http tarballs, while in reality file or scp protocols are also
supported.

Triggered by a recent support question, update the help text to clarify
this.

help
This option allows to specify the http or ftp location of a
specific kernel source tarball
This option allows to specify a URL pointing to a kernel source
tarball. This URL can use any protocol recognized by Buildroot,
like http://, ftp://, file:// or scp://.
When pointing to a local tarball using file://, you may want to
use a make variable like $(TOPDIR) to reference the root of the
Buildroot tree.
