Correct the documentation regarding `vmsplice` and `SPLICE_F_GIFT` behavior. `SPLICE_F_GIFT` does not enforce Copy-on-Write (COW) when the user-space process modifies the gifted memory. Instead, it is a zero-copy mechanism where post-resume modifications can lead to inconsistent intermediate dumps. Explain how CRIU handles this inconsistency via its iterative design, relying on the soft-dirty tracker to catch post-resume modifications and re-dump them in subsequent iterations, ensuring final consistency. Also emphasize that the `splice` scheme relies heavily on `vmsplice` performance to minimize freeze time, making the migration almost invisible to the process.
