[PATCH] MINOR DOC: Improve CLI info on privilege levels

[Olivier Doucet]

Hello all,

I was experimenting some CLI actions like "disable server" and get error
"Permission denied". I did not find easily why in HAProxy doc (I was in a
hurry, so did not read well, I admit).
This was because of the "level" on the socket bind line not high enough.

Attached is a patch to the doc to add a small paragraph explaining that
some CLI actions require higher level of privileges. This is very well
explained in the configuration manual, but CLI options are explained in the
management tutorial, that's why I did not find what I was looking for at
first sight.

If you have better phrasing, feel free to comment me :)

@willy: I hope patch is formatted correctly this time ;)
