doc: riscv: Update documentation for Sipeed MAIX boards

The MAIXDUINO runs fine with the sipeed_maix_bitm_defconfig but a different
board id parameter should be passed to kflash.

+Resetting the board
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The MAIX boards can be reset using the DTR and RTS lines of the serial console.
+How the lines are used depends on the specific board. See the code of kflash.py
+for details.
+
+This is the reset sequence for the MAXDUINO and MAIX BiT with Mic:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   def reset(self):
+        self.device.setDTR(False)
+        self.device.setRTS(False)
+        time.sleep(0.1)
+        self.device.setDTR(True)
+        time.sleep(0.1)
+        self.device.setDTR(False)
+        time.sleep(0.1)
+
+and this for the MAIX Bit:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   def reset(self):
+        self.device.setDTR(False)
+        self.device.setRTS(False)
