Improve code documentation about "magnetic disk" storage manager.

The modern incarnation of md.c is by no means specific to magnetic disk
technology, but every so often we hear from someone who's misled by the
label.  Try to clarify that it will work for anything that supports
standard filesystem operations.  Per suggestion from Andrew Dunstan.
