drm/i915/buddy: document the unused header bits
The largest possible order is (63-PAGE_SHIFT), given that our min chunk size is PAGE_SIZE. With that we should only need at most 6 bits to represent all possible orders, giving us back 4 bits for other potential uses. Include a simple selftest to verify this.
