Document RWF_ATOMIC flag for pwritev2().

RWF_ATOMIC atomic is used for enabling torn-write protection.

We use RWF_ATOMIC as this is legacy name for similar feature proposed in
the past.

Kernel support has now been queued in
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/20240620125359.2684798-1-john.g.garry@oracle.com/ (local)

Differences to v2:
- rebase

Differences to v1:
- Add statx max segments param
- Expand readv.2 description
- Document EINVAL
I don't remember having seen v1 or v2.  This is the first iteration sent
to linux-man@, right?  (No problem with that; just to confirm.)
Yes, first for linux-man@. An oversight on my part (not to include for 
previous iterations), sorry. Please see v1 and v2 at:

Thanks,
