[GlobalISel] Document minimum legality requirements for G_IMPLICIT_DEF. (#117609)

if there is any way to legally define that type by another means.

G_INTTOPTR have already been noted above. In addition to those, the following
operations have requirements:
* At least one G_IMPLICIT_DEF must be legal. This is usually trivial as it
requires no code to be selected.
* For every type that can be produced by any instruction, G_IMPLICIT_DEF must be
legal.
* G_PHI must be legal for all types in the producer and consumer typesets. This
is usually trivial as it requires no code to be selected.
* At least one G_FRAME_INDEX must be legal
