Re: [charmod-norm] Not all precomposed characters are reachable by NFC (#190)

Try the text in the commit I just merged.

@asmusf I agree that the text was just specific enough to cause confusion for close observers of the effect of normalization. I tend to disagree that we are making that level of detailed description. 

So... I converted the note to a warning so that it is blindingly visible. I rephrased the warning part to include the concept of exceptions, although I didn't termify "composition exception". And I added a final sentence about the purpose of NFC:

> What NFC gives the user is a string that can be compared to other NFC strings for equality with the minimum number of combining marks for that purpose.

@r12a Any thoughts?
