Docs/mm/damon/design: add monitoring parameters tuning guide

Patch series "Docs/mm/damon: add tuning guide and misc updates".

Add DAMON monitoring parameters tuning guide (patches 1 and 2), with misc
documentation fixes (patch 3), updates (patch 4) and clarifications (patch
5).

This patch (of 5):

DAMON monitoring parameters including sampling and aggregation intervals
should be tuned for given workloads.  However, the fact is not explicitly
documented.  Also there is no official guide to help the tuning.  This
apparently confused a number of people[1] at best, or made people forgive
DAMON without tuning.  Add a guide on the design document.
