Update the s390 specific PCI documentation to better reflect current
behavior and terms such as the handling of Isolated VFs via commit
25f39d3dcb48 ("s390/pci: Ignore RID for isolated VFs").

Add a descriptions for /sys/firmware/clp/uid_is_unique which was added
in commit b043a81ce3ee ("s390/pci: Expose firmware provided UID Checking
state in sysfs") but missed documentation.

Similarly add documentation for the fidparm attribute added by commit
99ad39306a62 ("s390/pci: Expose FIDPARM attribute in sysfs") and
add a list of pft values and their names.

Finally improve formatting of the different attribute descriptions by
adding a separating colon.

Thanks for updating this! I wonder if we should update this documentation to better explain some of the nuances of PCI on s390, or more like "intro to zpci". But that could be a separate thing.
