Subject: [PATCH] docs: Restate position on removal of VMware Tools
With the "reboot after every step" change made in the previous commit,
it seems removal of VMware Tools is now more reliable. Update the
notes about this.
Updates: commit c952f310c902e438a8b0b5240a4b486b698bede8
(cherry picked from commit e9c0d63b22bcb4c31cfaac00fc1271713c8bd3b3)
