createAndPromote: Add documentation about automatic global groups
Why:
* If createAndPromote is run while CentralAuth is loaded and
$wgCentralAuthAutomaticGlobalGroups is configured, the global
groups will not be updated atomatically, and instead must be
updated manually.
* This decision was made as part of T376315, which introduces
automatic global groups, because we do not expect there to be
a need for automatic global groups to work with the groups
that are permitted by createAndPromote.
What:
* Document this behaviour in the createAndPromote documentation.
Bug: T376315
