ext4: add docs about fast commit idempotence

Fast commit on-disk format is designed such that the replay of these
tags can be idempotent. This patch adds documentation in the code in
form of comments and in form kernel docs that describes these
characteristics. This patch also adds a TODO item needed to ensure
kernel fast commit replay idempotence.
