Subject: Docs/admin-guide/mm/damon/usage: update for changed initail_regions file input

A previous commit made init_regions debugfs file to use target index
instead of target id for specifying the target of the init regions.  This
commit updates the usage document to reflect the change.

 Note that this sets the initial monitoring target regions only.  In case of
 virtual memory monitoring, DAMON will automatically updates the boundary of the
