x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers: emphasise that fbdev=1 is experimental
Console works fine but personally had a poor experience where Xorg applications were crashing (once) after a mode switch. Imagine mileage may vary, but nvidia themselves call it experimental. Untested, but I believe this actually works better with wayland. Signed-off-by: Ionen Wolkens <ionen@gentoo.org>
