docs: backlight: Clarify
Currently userspace software systemd treats `brightness` and
`actual_brightness` identically due to a bug found in an out of tree
driver.
This however causes problems for in-tree drivers that use brightness
to report user requested `brightness` and `actual_brightness` to report
what the hardware actually has programmed.
Clarify the documentation to match the behavior described in commit
6ca0176 ("[PATCH] backlight: Backlight Class Improvements").
