Since QEMU 5.2.0 fixes the vhost split ring multi-queue reconnection
issue in commit f66337bdbfda ("vhost-user: save features of multiqueues
if chardev is closed"), this patch updates known issue to indicate
the range of affeacted QEMU versions.

Fixes: b37e95507e1b ("doc: add vhost multi-queue reconnection issue")

 **Description**
    It's a QEMU regression bug (bad commit: c6beefd674ff). QEMU only saves
    acked features for one vhost-net when vhost quits. When vhost reconnects
    to virtio-net/virtio-pmd in multi-queue situations, the features been

+   set multiple times are not consistent. QEMU-5.2.0 fixes this issue in commit
+   f66337bdbfda ("vhost-user: save features of multiqueues if chardev is closed").
 
 **Implication**
    Vhost cannot reconnect back to virtio-net/virtio-pmd normally.
