Add documentation for the p2pmem/allocate binary file which allows
for allocating p2pmem buffers in userspace for passing to drivers
that support them. (Currently only O_DIRECT to NVMe devices.)

+Description:
+ This file allows mapping p2pmem into userspace. For each
+ mmap() call on this file, the kernel will allocate a chunk
+ of Peer-to-Peer memory for use in Peer-to-Peer transactions.
+ This memory can be used in O_DIRECT calls to NVMe backed
+ files for Peer-to-Peer copies.
