ext4, doc: fix and improve directory hash tree description
Some of the details about how directory hash trees work were confusing or outright wrong, this patch should fix those. A note on dx_tail's dt_reserved member, as far as I can tell the kernel never sets this explicitly, so its content is apparently left-overs from what was there before (for the dx_root I've seen remnants of a ext4_dir_entry_tail struct from when the dir was not yet a hash dir).
