Clarify the process for CE-first documentation

Previously it was unclear if the docs changes should be included in
the MR as well, and adding a changelog entry in the CE MR also triggers
the ee-specific-lines-check job in CI.

After a given documentation path is aligned across CE and EE, all merge requests
affecting that path must be submitted to CE, regardless of the content it has.
This means that for EE-only features which are being added only to the EE codebase,
you have to submit a separate merge request in CE that contains the docs.
This might seem like a duplicate effort, but it's for the short term.
This means that:
* For **EE-only docs changes**, you only have to submit a CE MR.
* For **EE-only features** that touch both the code and the docs, you have to submit
an EE MR containing all changes, and a CE MR containing only the docs changes
and without a changelog entry.
This might seem like a duplicate effort, but it's only for the short term.
A list of the already aligned docs can be found in
[the epic description](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/199#ee-specific-lines-check).
