x86/retpoline: Document some thunk handling aspects
After a lot of experimenting (see thread Link points to) document for
now the issues and requirements for future improvements to the thunk

hasn't been patched out.
This documentation is only temporary and that close before the merge
window it is only a placeholder for those future improvements.
