libgomp.texi: Note to 'Memory allocation' sect and missing mem-memory routines
This commit completes the documentation of the OpenMP memory-management
routines, except for the unimplemented TR11 additions. It also makes clear
in the 'Memory allocation' section of the 'OpenMP-Implementation Specifics'
chapter under which condition OpenMP managed memory/allocators are used.
libgomp/ChangeLog:
* libgomp.texi: Fix some typos.
(Memory Management Routines): Document remaining 5.x routines.
(Memory allocation): Make clear when the section applies.
