docs(mango): match description of `$mod` with reality3.2.2-docs
The remainder argument for the `$mod` operator can be zero, while its documentation suggests otherwise. It actually covers a very realistic use case where divisibility is expressed. Neither related restrictions could be identified in the sources [1] nor MongoDB forbids this [2]. Tests also seem to exercise this specific case [3]. Thanks @iilyak for checking on these.
