LOG: [docs] Fix documentation of -fno-strict-float-cast-overflow after D115804.

Previously this was documented as having the behavior of the
"target's native float-to-int conversion". After D115804, clang
uses saturating FP cast intrinsics which have the same behavior
on all targets.

    When a floating-point value is not representable in a destination integer
    type, the code has undefined behavior according to the language standard.
    By default, Clang will not guarantee any particular result in that case.
