Andrew Deason 00275ea88e doc: Document change in 'fs flushall' privileges
Commit 4392020ba0 (fs: Restrict 'fs flushall' to root) changed the
fs_flushall manpage to document the new behavior, but now the manpage
lacks any information about old versions. Document the old behavior as
well, to be clear that "old" (current stable) versions do not require
root access.
