Documentation: kgdboc: Document new kgdboc_earlycon parameter
The recent patch ("kgdboc: Add kgdboc_earlycon to support early kgdb using boot consoles") adds a new kernel command line parameter. Document it. Note that the patch adding the feature does some comparing/contrasting of "kgdboc_earlycon" vs. the existing "ekgdboc". See that patch for more details, but briefly "ekgdboc" can be used _instead_ of "kgdboc" and just makes "kgdboc" do its normal initialization early (only works if your tty driver is already ready). The new "kgdboc_earlycon" works in combination with "kgdboc" and is backed by boot consoles.
