Documentation/rtla: Add -A/--aligned option
Cover the newly added -A/--aligned option that aligns timerlat threads using the corresponding feature of the timerlat tracer. A note is added to clarify what alignment means, similar to the note in the tracer implementation in commit 4245bf4 ("tracing/osnoise: Add option to align tlat threads").

Align wake-up of timerlat threads to a set offset in microseconds.
102+
103+
The alignment will be applied when the threads wake up at the start of tracing while
104+
the timer for the first cycle is armed. Each thread sets its timer to the wake-up time
105+
of the previous thread plus the alignment.
106+
107+
This option may be used with any non-negative argument, including zero, which will
108+
align threads so that they wake up all at the same time.
