Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon/usage: note DAMON debugfs interface deprecation plan
Commit b18402726bd1 ("Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon/usage: document DAMON sysfs interface") announced the DAMON debugfs interface deprecation plan, but it is not so aggressively announced. As the deprecation time is coming, this commit makes the announce more easy to be found by adding the note at the beginning of the DAMON debugfs interface usage document.

debugfs Interface
=================
+.. note::
+
+ DAMON debugfs interface will be removed after next LTS kernel is released, so
+ users should move to the :ref:`sysfs interface <sysfs_interface>`.
+
DAMON exports eight files, ``attrs``, ``target_ids``, ``init_regions``,
``schemes``, ``monitor_on``, ``kdamond_pid``, ``mk_contexts`` and
``rm_contexts`` under its debugfs directory, ``<debugfs>/damon/``.
