api-ref: re-work resize action post-conditions
This change does a few things: 1. Moves the post-condition paragraph into an "Asynchronous Postconditions" section like other API references. 2. Drops the "RESIZED" VM status wording since what that probably meant was the server OS-EXT-STS:vm_state value would be "resized" but what was in the reference was (a) wrong and (b) redundant with the VERIFY_RESIZE status. 3. Re-words and links the resize_confirm_window config option wording since saying "if you set" a config option in the API reference does not really make sense since "you" (the non-admin cloud user) does not have control over how the cloud is configured.
