mdadm: add man page for --add-journal

Add the following to man page:

--add-journal
      Recreate journal for RAID-4/5/6 array that lost a journal device.
      In the current implementation, this command cannot add a journal
      to an array that had a failed journal. To avoid interrupting
      on-going write opertion --add-journal only works for array in
      Read-Only state.

 Each of these options requires that the first device listed is the array
 to be acted upon, and the remainder are component devices to be added,
