LOG: [NFC][clang-tidy] Extend doc-comment of BranchCloneCheck (#206116)

Commit 8ac2b77a11c9db9879557ce1c26e38628e1ef45f extended the check
bugprone-branch-clone with a new feature but forgot to mention this in
the doc-comment at the beginning of BranchCloneCheck.h.

Although I don't think that this comment is read too often, let's still
update it to provide accurate information.

Added: 
    

Modified: 
    clang-tools-extra/clang-tidy/bugprone/BranchCloneCheck.h

Removed:
