[docs][Statepoints] More on base pointers

Expand the information on base pointers to include an example, the assumptions a collector is allowed to make, legal optimizations over gc.relocates, and the assumptions made by RewriteStatepointsForGC.  This is the result of a recent conversation with folks from LLIC and the confusions that came to light therein.
