docs/qcow2: Limit refcount_order to [0, 6]



Specify the upper limit of refcount_order to be 6 (that is,
refcount_bits = 64). Any larger value does not make much sense when all
offsets, sizes, cluster counts etc. "only" have a width of 64 bit as
well, and very large values would be very difficult to support.
Therefore, just cap it at the largest reasonable value.
