cam: Add doxygen docs to cam_sim_alloc
Add description for what each of the parameters are to the cam_sim_alloc
call. Add some additional context for the mtx and queue parameters to
explain what special values passed in mean.

+/**
+ * @brief allocate a new sim and fill in the details
+ *
+ * A Storage Interface Module (SIM) is the interface between CAM and
+ * hardware. SIM receives CCBs from CAM via @p sim_action callback and
+ * translates them into DMA or other hardware transactions. During system
+ * dumps, it can be polled with the @p sim_poll callback. CCB processing is
+ * terminated by calling @c xpt_done().
+ *
+ * The @p mtx acts as a perimeter lock for the SIM. All calls into the SIM's
+ * @p sim_action are made with this lock held. It is also used to hold/release
+ * a SIM, managing its reference count. When the lock is NULL, the SIM is 100%
+ * responsible for locking (and the reference counting is done with a shared
+ * lock.
+ *
+ * The cam_devq passed in (@c queue) is used to arbitrate the number of
+ * outstanding transactions to the SIM. For HBAs that have global limits shared
+ * between the different buses, the same devq should be specified for each bus
+ * attached to the SIM.
+ *
+ * @param sim_action Function to call to process CCBs
+ * @param sim_poll Function to poll the hardware for completions
+ * @param sim_name Name of SIM class
+ * @param softc Software context associated with the SIM
+ * @param unit Unit number of SIM
+ * @param mtx Mutex to lock while interacting with the SIM, or NULL
+ * for a SIM that handle its own locking to enable multi
+ * queue support.
+ * @param max_dev_transactions Maximum number of concurrent untagged
+ * transactions possible
+ * @param max_tagged_dev_transactions Maximum number of concurrent tagged
+ * transactions possible.
+ * @param queue The cam_devq to use for this SIM.
