qemu-options.hx: Update the reduced-phys-bits documentation
A guest only ever experiences, at most, 1 bit of reduced physical addressing. Update the documentation to reflect this as well as change the example value on the reduced-phys-bits option.

physical address space. The ``reduced-phys-bits`` is used to
provide the number of bits we loose in physical address space.
Similar to C-bit, the value is Host family dependent. On EPYC,
- the value should be 5.
+ a guest will lose a maximum of 1 bit, so the value should be 1.
The ``sev-device`` provides the device file to use for
communicating with the SEV firmware running inside AMD Secure
