Fix documentation of QNetworkAccessBackend

The classes themselves were not documented, so...:

Add some documentation for QNetworkAccessBackendFactory.
Add some overall class docs for QNetworkAccessBackend.

The class docs were marked \internal (because they mostly are).
I don't think we yet have a defined way to handle semi-private APIs but
having them be marked \internal and leaving the documentation in source
seems fine (and was what someone suggested a while back).

Add documentation for pure virtual functions which were overlooked.

Pick-to: 6.2
Fixes: QTBUG-88774

+    The class is considered semi-private and as such requires linking
+    to "NetworkPrivate" to access the header. Furthermore it means
+    the class is not under the same binary compatibility restrictions
+    as the rest of Qt. While we still try to avoid breakage it may
+    still occur. The class is primarily meant to be used by plugins
+    which would be recompiled every time Qt is updated.
+    //![semi-private-notice]
+
+    This class acts as the primary interface to the plugin and must
+    be derived from. It deals with both querying supported schemes
+    and the creation of QNetworkAccessBackend
+
+    Since they are both abstract function you are required to
+    implement supportedSchemes() and create().
