leds: st1202: Correct and extend hw_pattern documentation
Fix the repeat section: -1 is a valid value meaning infinite repeat, as accepted by the ledtrig-pattern sysfs interface; only 0 and values below -1 are rejected. The previous text incorrectly stated all negative numbers were invalid. Also remove the redundant trailing sentence since the behaviour is now covered inline. Add the brightness range (0-255) to the hw_pattern section, which was previously undocumented.
