docs: arm64: gic-v5: Document booting requirements for GICv5

Document the requirements for booting a kernel on a system implementing
a GICv5 interrupt controller.

Specifically, other than DT/ACPI providing the required firmware
representation, define what traps must be disabled if the kernel is
booted at EL1 on a system where EL2 is implemented.
