Update devmem.rst documentation to describe the autorelease netlink
attribute used during RX dmabuf binding.

The autorelease attribute is specified at bind-time via the netlink API
(NETDEV_CMD_BIND_RX) and controls what happens to outstanding tokens
when the socket closes.

Document the two token release modes (automatic vs manual), how to
configure the binding for autorelease, the perf benefits, new caveats
and restrictions, and the way the mode is enforced system-wide.
