mac80211: fix comment regarding aggregation buf_size

The description for buf_size was misleading and
just said you couldn't TX larger aggregates, but
of course you can't TX aggregates in a way that
would exceed the window either, which is possible
even if the aggregates are shorter than that.

Expand the description, thanks to Emmanuel for
explaining this to me.
