doc: watchdog: document buddy detector
The current documentation generalizes the hardlockup detector as primarily NMI-perf-based and lacks details on the SMP "Buddy" detector. Update the documentation to add a detailed description of the Buddy detector, and also restructure the "Implementation" section to explicitly separate "Softlockup Detector", "Hardlockup Detector (NMI/Perf)", and "Hardlockup Detector (Buddy)". Clarify that the softlockup hrtimer acts as the heartbeat generator for both hardlockup mechanisms and centralize the configuration details in a "Frequency and Heartbeats" section.
