Marco Elver 5cc906b4b4 kfence: add note to documentation about skipping covered allocations
Add a note briefly mentioning the new policy about "skipping currently
covered allocations if pool close to full." Since this has a notable
impact on KFENCE's bug-detection ability on systems with large uptimes,
it is worth pointing out the feature.
