doc: document experimental features better.
* doc/bison.texinfo (Introduction): Say that IELR(1) and canonical LR(1) are experimental. Mention Java. Normally experimental features probably shouldn't be mentioned in the introduction. However, if Bison's limitations to LALR(1), C, and C++ are so important that they should be mentioned here, then it's important to point out that Bison is beginning to escape those limitations. Moreover, these particular experimental features have very little chance of being removed. * src/getargs.c (usage): Say that IELR(1) and canonical LR(1) are experimental. (cherry picked from commit d89e48b3c9e857aa6d34f0bc66c9d9ac305f1b0c)
