Document issues with Fl_Scroll as children of Fl_Tabs (#1175)

Unfortunately this *appears* to be a new constraint caused by the great
new features of Fl_Tabs like overflow handling etc. and fixing drawing
issues in the tab area (since FLTK 1.4).

However, this conflict has already been there in 1.3 but didn't cause
visual artifacts in normal use.

Clicking the tab makes a child visible() by calling
show() on it, and all other children are made invisible
by calling hide() on them. Usually the children are Fl_Group widgets
containing several widgets themselves.

\b Note: The widgets contained in each child should leave some clear space (five
pixels as of FLTK 1.4.0) at the top or bottom of the group where the tabs are
displayed, otherwise drawing the children may interfere with the separation
border between the tabs and the children. This is particularly important if the
child group is an Fl_Scroll widget: either the Fl_Scroll widget can be inset by
five pixels relative to other children or it must be ensured that the widgets
inside the Fl_Scroll group stay away from the top or bottom by this amount. You
can use an invisible Fl_Box at the top (or bottom) of the Fl_Scroll widget so
other (visible) widgets can't be scrolled all the way up or down to achieve this.
