doc: Mention the `gb-dialect` vty option, as it is quite essential
We should have introduced this documentation snipped years ago, when
first introducing IP-SNS support in libosmogb/osmo-pcu.

Gb implementation to be used from OsmoPCU, OsmoGbProxy as well as
OsmoSGSN.
+The Gb Implementation supports two different dialects:
+
+* `classic` dialect, which implements a non-standard dialect from the days
+ where Frame Relay was the default and no IP transport had yet been
+ specified by 3GPP.
+* `ip-sns` dialect, which implements the 3GPP standard for NS-over-IP,
+ including the IP-SNS protocol.
+
+In case of doubt, and assuming you are directly interfacing to a
+modern 3rd party SGSN, use the `ip-sns` dialect.
+
+Selection of the dialect is done using the `gb-dialect` VTY option at the `pcu` node.
