futex: update documentation for ordering guarantees



Commits 11d4616b ("futex: revert back to the explicit waiter
counting code") and 69cd9eba ("futex: avoid race between requeue and
wake") changed some of the finer details of how we think about futexes.
One was a late fix and the other a consequence of overlooking the whole
requeuing logic.

The first change caused our documentation to be incorrect, and the
second made us aware that we need to explicitly add more details to it.
