sched/docs: Align ETC ROMFS text with tmpfs-first /tmp mount.

CONFIG_FS_TMPFS is not enabled.

boards/sim: Prefer tmpfs for /tmp in rc.sysinit.
Prefer mounting /tmp with tmpfs in the SIM default rc.sysinit when
CONFIG_FS_TMPFS is enabled, and keep the FAT RAMDISK path as a
fallback for configurations that only enable CONFIG_FS_FAT.
