wifi: mac80211: clarify the dormant/suspended links docs

Browse Source 
Since I keep getting confused about this and asking about it,
update the documentation.

In the future, especially when we add more reasons for a link
to be disabled, we should add a per-link 'disable state' bitmap
instead of maintaining all these bitmaps with subset logic, to
indicate each of the different states separately.
