xfs/040: document purpose

Getting xfs/040 to "pass" takes a bit of effort, however the effort
to require updating xfsprogs is purely an xfsprogs maintainer task
only. There no functional gain by users of xfs or a QA team to get
this test to pass. This is not trivial from the current description
so document this.

# compare-libxfs test
#
# The purpose of this test is only to nag the maintainer of xfsprogs to try to
# keep xfsprogs's libxfs files in sync with the latest kernel's libxfs. There
# is no functional need for anyone to actually run this test to confirm
# proper XFS functionalilty, this is an xfsprogs maintainer test.
