[patch] Documentation: memcg: future proof hierarchical statistics documentation

[Johannes Weiner]

The hierarchical versions of per-memcg counters in memory.stat are all
calculated the same way and are all named total_<counter>.

Documenting the pattern is easier for maintenance than listing each
counter twice.
