Reword the explanation text so phrasing of iodepth and submit
distributions is more similar. Also draw attention to the fact the value
represents the end-point in iodepth distributions and the start-point in
submit distributions.

**IO depths**
- The distribution of I/O depths over the job life time. The numbers are
- divided into powers of 2, so for example the 16= entries includes depths
- up to that value but higher than the previous entry. In other words, it
- covers the range from 16 to 31.

**IO submit**
How many pieces of I/O were submitting in a single submit call. Each
entry denotes that amount and below, until the previous entry -- e.g.,

entry denotes that amount and below, until the previous entry -- e.g.,
- 8=100% mean that we submitted anywhere in between 5-8 I/Os per submit

**IO complete**
Like the above submit number, but for completions instead.
