[PATCH v3 10/10] Documentation/x86: Update resctrl_ui.rst for new features

[Babu Moger <babu.moger@amd.com>]

Update the documentation for the new features:
1. Slow Memory Bandwidth allocation.
   With this feature, the QOS  enforcement policies can be applied
   to the external slow memory connected to the host. QOS enforcement
   is accomplished by assigning a Class Of Service (COS) to a processor
   and specifying allocations or limits for that COS for each resource
   to be allocated.

2. Bandwidth Monitoring Event Configuration (BMEC).
   The bandwidth monitoring events mbm_total_bytes and mbm_local_bytes
   are set to count all the total and local reads/writes respectively.
   With the introduction of slow memory, the two counters are not
   enough to count all the different types are memory events. With the
   feature BMEC, the users have the option to configure mbm_total_bytes
   and mbm_local_bytes to count the specific type of events.

Also add configuration instructions with examples.
