docs/vfs_ceph: add CTDB_SAMBA_SKIP_SHARE_CHECK=yes caveat
Mostly copied from the vfs_gluster manpage: the CephFS share path is not locally mounted, which breaks the ctdb_check_directories_probe() check.

<para>
+ Since <command>vfs_ceph</command> does not require a filesystem
+ mount, the share <command>path</command> is treated differently:
+ it is interpreted as an absolute path within the Ceph filesystem
+ on the attached Ceph cluster.
+ In a ctdb cluster environment where ctdb manages Samba,
+ <command>CTDB_SAMBA_SKIP_SHARE_CHECK=yes</command> must be
+ configured to disable local share path checks, otherwise ctdb
+ will not reach a healthy state.

Note that currently <command>kernel share modes</command> have
to be disabled in a share running with the CephFS vfs module for
file serving to work properly.
