vswitch.xml: Update docs for max-idle.

Browse Source 
When this configuration parameter was initially introduced into the
database, the documentation was not updated to describe where it
resides. Add the documentation, with the caveat that in most situations,
there is no need to tweak this option and it is primarily present for
the benefit of developers working on flow caching.

Fixes: 72310b041c ("upcall: Configure datapath max-idle through ovs-vsctl.")

The maximum time (in ms) that idle flows will remain cached in the
datapath. Internally OVS will check the validity and activity for
datapath flows regularly and may expire flows quicker than this
number, based on real time network conditions. Tweaking this
value is discouraged unless you know exactly what you're doing.
