Documentation: sysfs/memory: clarify some memory block device properties

In commit 5143f8450857 ("drivers/base/memory.c: indicate all memory blocks
as removable") we changed the output of the "removable" property of memory
devices to return "1" if and only if the kernel supports memory offlining.

Let's update documentation, stating that the interface is legacy.  Also
update documentation of the "state" property and "valid_zones" properties.
