[Docu] IB switch configuration: fix passwd entry

Browse Source 
The entry in the passwd table has to use the key `switch`, otherwise the sshusername and password is not detected.

See `man switches` page:
```
       sshusername
                 The remote login user name. It can be for ssh or telnet. If it is for telnet,
                 set protocol to "telnet". If the sshusername is blank, the username, password
                 and protocol will be retrieved from the passwd table with "switch" as the key.

       sshpassword
                 The remote login password. It can be for ssh or telnet. If it is for telnet, set
                 protocol to "telnet". If the sshusername is blank, the username, password and
                 protocol will be retrieved from the passwd table with "switch" as the key.
```
See `man passwd` page:
```
       key
              The type of component this user/pw is for. Valid values: blade (management module), 
              ipmi (BMC), system (nodes), omapi (DHCP), hmc, ivm, cec, frame, switch.
```
