A set of documentation updates for the online checksums work, found via
manual as well as LLM-guided review.
* The state diagram was re-done to be improve readability and be
more in line with the look and feel of other diagrams.
* Paragraph about mismatched states moved to its own sect2.
* The documentation for the functions to enable/ disable checksums
failed to mention that they are superuser only.
* The documentation for the checksums progress reporting had
accidentally omitted the work "fork" and for the blocks_* columns.
The values are per fork but the documentation made it seem they
were per relation.
* Add the state image to the meson buildfile
