Describe the bug

On instructions for installing neoVI there is a bullet item Install python-can with the neovi extras but the incantations given for doing so, in the box below that, seem to be incorrect.

In pip install python-ics[neovi] I suspect that the "python-ics" should be replaced by "python-can".

To Reproduce

To try out my theory, I tried invoking pip install python-can[neovi] instead of the incantations given in the documentation, and I noticed fun stuff being installed. Although I am just a newbie to this library, it seemed to me like it succeeded.

But when I instead typed the documented incantations pip install python-ics[neovi] I was told that my python-ics requirement was already satisfied, and also received additional WARNING: python-ics 912.4.post1 does not provide the extra 'neovi'

Both these behaviors lead me to think that the instruction in the documentation may have an error.

Expected behavior

Additional context

OS and version: Windows10
Python version: 3.11.3
python-can version: 4.3.0
python-can interface/s (if applicable):
