LOG: [AMDGPU] Drop docs for invalid load-release and store-acquire operations (#202338)

The LangRef says "release and acq_rel orderings are not valid on load
instructions" [for loads](https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#load-instruction)
and "acquire and acq_rel orderings aren't valid on store instructions"
[for stores](https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#store-instruction).
Providing them in textual IR is diagnosed with an error.

Therefore, we should not define semantics for these invalid constructs.

Part of LCOMPILER-2273.
