Documentation: iomap: Add missing flags description



Let's document the use of these flags in iomap design doc where other
flags are defined too -

- IOMAP_F_BOUNDARY was added by XFS to prevent merging of I/O and I/O
  completions across RTG boundaries.
- IOMAP_F_ATOMIC_BIO was added for supporting atomic I/O operations
  for filesystems to inform the iomap that it needs HW-offload based
  mechanism for torn-write protection.

While we are at it, let's also fix the description of IOMAP_F_PRIVATE
flag after a recent:
commit 923936ef ("iomap: Fix conflicting values of iomap flags")
