Add #PRE and #NOFNR flags to LMHOSTS example line.
Include information about LMHOSTS path on Windows 3.x.
Windows NT 3.1 requires #NOFNR flag for successful hostname resolving as
described in MS article Q103765 because qemu/smbd does not respond to
netbios name verification queries. #PRE is suggested in that article too
and decrease delay on Windows 3.x for the first connection.
