Document system favorite VHD startup limitation

Browse Source

Clarify that Windows startup-managed VHD/VHDX files, including Dev Drive backing images, cannot live on system favorite volumes because they are accessed before those volumes are mounted.

Document that native-boot VHD/VHDX files also cannot live on system favorite volumes and remain subject to the existing VeraCrypt pre-boot authentication limitation for operating systems installed within VHD/VHDX files.

Mention a delayed/retrying attach workaround for non-boot-critical VHD/VHDX files after VeraCryptSystemFavorites mounts the host volume.

Closes #1605.
