Add SWITCH_DISCOVERY_AUTH_PROTO_GUIDE.md with an end-to-end guide for configuring auth_proto (SNMPv3 auth/privacy protocol) for normal initial switch discovery. Covers supported values, NX-OS SNMPv3 user prerequisite, environment variable requirements, and a SHA_AES example. Add cross-reference note to SWITCH_DISCOVERY_CREDENTIALS_GUIDE.md to distinguish POAP/preprovision flows from normal discovery. Closes netascode#871
