[DOCS] Add warning on restarting nodes exceeding low disk watermark (#89018)

* Create restart-cluster.asciidoc

As per https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/49972 and https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/56578, if a node is above low disk threshold when being restarted (rolling restart, network disruption or crash), the disk threshold decider prevents reusing the shard content on the restarted node.

The consequence of the event is the node may take a long time to start.

* Update docs/reference/setup/restart-cluster.asciidoc

LGTM! Thanks!
