ABI: Update dev-kmsg documentation to match current kernel behaviour
Commit 5aa068ea4082 ("printk: remove games with previous record flags")
abolished the practice of setting the log flag to 'c' for the first
continuation line and '+' for subsequent lines. Now all continuation
lines are flagged with 'c' and '+' is never used.
Update the 'dev-kmsg' documentation to remove the reference to the
obsolete '+' flag. In addition, state explicitly that only 8 bits of the
<N> syslog prefix are used for the facility number when writing to
/dev/kmsg.
