axfer: add an explanation about advantages/issues of Timer-based scheduling model

Timer-based scheduling model has some merits against IRQ-based
scheduling model. However, as of Linux kernel v4.21, ALSA PCM interface
between kernel/userspace has a lack of some features.

This commit adds a subsection to describe it.
