[main] Combine SME slice parameters

Previously the (alpha) SME intrinsics were documented to take two
slice parameters: a 32-bit variable index and a 64-bit constant
offset.  However, it isn't very C-like to split an addition in
this way, and as Sander points out, it isn't really consistent
with the way that we handle vnum parameters.

 The intrinsics in this section have the following properties in common:

-    be an integer constant expression in the range of the underlying

+*   Some SME instructions index ZA using the sum of a 32-bit general-purpose
+    reister (`w12` to `w15`) and a constant offset.  Instead of having
+    arguments for the two individual fields, the associated intrinsics
+    have a single 32-bit index called `slice` that holds the sum.
 
 *   ZA loads and stores do not use typed pointers, since there is
     no C or C++ type information associated with the contents of ZA.
