doc: Further elucidate(?) the bcachefs situation.
This follows up on commit cd2d52bce2a89f5c3243d78979adbba7e00d3c55. Said support is <https://codeberg.org/guix/guix/pulls/1917>, but linking to PRs in the documentation is a bit much. The git log is much better. * doc/guix.texi (Keyboard Layout and Networking and Partitioning): One cannot, in fact, load the bcachefs module on an unpatched Guix System.
