[OpenCL][Doc] Added OpenCL vendor extension description to user manual doc

Added description of a new feature that allows to specify
vendor extension in flexible way using compiler pragma instead
of modifying source code directly (committed in clang at r289979).

+OpenCL Extensions
+-----------------
+
+All of the ``cl_khr_*`` extensions from `the official OpenCL specification
+<https://www.khronos.org/registry/OpenCL/sdk/2.0/docs/man/xhtml/EXTENSION.html>`_
+up to and including version 2.0 are available and set per target depending on the
+support available in the specific architecture.
+
+It is possible to alter the default extensions setting per target using
+``-cl-ext`` flag. (See :ref:`flags description <opencl_cl_ext>` for more details).
+
+Vendor extensions can be added flexibly by declaring the list of types and
+functions associated with each extensions enclosed within the following
+compiler pragma directives:
+
+  .. code-block:: c
+
+       #pragma OPENCL EXTENSION the_new_extension_name : begin
+       // declare types and functions associated with the extension here
+       #pragma OPENCL EXTENSION the_new_extension_name : end
+
+For example, parsing the following code adds ``my_t`` type and ``my_func``
+function to the custom ``my_ext`` extension.
+
+  .. code-block:: c
+
+       #pragma OPENCL EXTENSION my_ext : begin
+       typedef struct{
+         int a;
+       }my_t;
+       void my_func(my_t);
+       #pragma OPENCL EXTENSION my_ext : end
+
+Declaring the same types in different vendor extensions is disallowed.
