Expand available_parallelism docs in anticipation of cgroup quotas

Browse source 
The "fixed" in "fixed steady state limits" means to exclude load-dependent resource prioritization
that would calculate to 100% of capacity on an idle system and less capacity on a loaded system.

Additionally I also exclude "system load" since it would be silly to try to identify
other, perhaps higher priority, processes hogging some CPU cores that aren't explicitly excluded
by masks/quotas/whatever.
