block: Document that x-blockdev-change breaks quorum children list

Browse Source 
Removing a quorum child node with x-blockdev-change results in a quorum
driver state that cannot be recreated with create options because it
would require a list with gaps. This causes trouble in at least
.bdrv_refresh_filename().

Document this problem so that we won't accidentally mark the command
stable without having addressed it.

# FIXME Removing children from a quorum node means introducing gaps in the
# child indices. This cannot be represented in the 'children' list of
# BlockdevOptionsQuorum, as returned by .bdrv_refresh_filename().
#
# Warning: The data in a new quorum child MUST be consistent with that of
# the rest of the array.
