Merge #13676: Explain that mempool memory is added to -dbcache
7cb1a1401d2dcc82d2c7ca7ee1d3067dc4ada5e8 Explain that unused mempool memory is added to -dbcache (Sjors Provoost)
Pull request description:
Since `-maxmempool` is 450 MB by default it's quite possible for a user to accidentally OOM a low
memory device if they increase `-dbcache` beyond the default.
