The GPU page said "systems running a single engine" without explaining what that means.

Reworded it: --gpus is for one Docker Engine on a host (not multi-node Swarm scheduling), and multiple containers on that engine can still use GPUs. Pointed Swarm users at generic resources for service placement.

Fixes #25685

Spell out that --gpus is per Docker Engine host, not multi-node
Swarm scheduling, and point at generic resources for services.

Fixes docker#25685
