Annotate the 10000baseCR entry in the advertise mask table so users
understand what physical media this mode it actually represents.

10000baseCR does not correspond to any IEEE 802.3 *base-CR PMD.
It has no autonegotiation, no link training, and no mandatory FEC.
The industry standard for this media type is SFF-8431 Appendix-E
Direct Attach cable, also known as 10G_SFI_DA.
