docs: Extend the list of TDX guest limitations

Browse Source 
Adding a new limitation related to the TDX guest kernel as it doesn't
allow for most ACPI devices, meaning the PCI hotplug through ACPI isn't
supported unless we use 'tdx_disable_filter' boot parameter.

### Guest kernel disables serial ports
### Guest kernel limitations
#### Serial ports disabled
The latest guest kernel that can be found in the latest image
`td-guest-rhel8.5.raw` disabled the support for serial ports. This means adding
`console=ttyS0` will have no effect and will not print any log from the guest.
#### PCI hotplug through ACPI
Unless you run the guest kernel with the parameter `tdx_disable_filter`, ACPI
devices responsible for handling PCI hotplug (PCI hotplug controller, PCI
Express Bus and Generic Event Device) will not be allowed, therefore the
corresponding drivers will not be loaded and the PCI hotplug feature will not
be supported.
