chancloser: update RBF close documentation for taproot support

In this commit we, update the RBF cooperative close documentation to
comprehensively cover the taproot channel closing flow. The documentation
now explains the JIT nonce pattern, asymmetric signature roles, and the
complete nonce exchange protocol for taproot channels.

Key additions include detailed explanations of how nonces flow through
the RBF process, the distinction between closer and closee roles, and
the specific wire message extensions for PartialSigWithNonce and
NextCloseeNonce fields. The documentation also covers validation
requirements and implementation notes specific to taproot channels.

This documentation provides a complete reference for understanding
and implementing the enhanced taproot RBF cooperative close protocol.
