Merge #21300: script: Add explanatory comment to tc.sh
3a0446fad470595db09929695ff02debe12bd4cd script: Add explanatory comment to tc.sh (dscotese)

Pull request description:

  This is a replacement for #21289

  tc.sh is used to limit bandwidth. I ran it and it is limiting my bandwidth. When I ran it, I got one error. I have not found an explanation anywhere of what the error means, but my best guess is consistent with the result, so I propose the explanatory comment to save others time when they use it and also get the error.
