doc: correct and standardize instructions for disabling TCP servers
The instructions to set the port to zero to disable a service has not
worked for several years: the effect of doing so is to start the service
on a port randomly selected by the bind(2) system call.
Update the documentation to reflect the new standard way of disabling
network services.
