Document the gc-atime-check flag and describe the behavior it
controls, by adding it as additional bullet point to the documented
datastore tuning options.
This also fixes the intendation for the cli example how to set the
sync level, to make it clear that still belongs to the previous
bullet point.

+* ``gc-atime-safety-check``: Datastore GC atime update safety check:
+ You can explicitly `enable` or `disable` the atime update safety check
+ performed on datastore creation and garbage collection. This checks if atime
+ updates are handled as expected by garbage collection and therefore avoids the
+ risk of data loss by unexpected filesystem behaviour. It is recommended to set
+ this to enabled, which is also the default value.
If you want to set multiple tuning options simultaneously, you can separate them
with a comma, like this:
