fbdev: fix color component field length documentation

Browse source 
The documentation about the meaning of the color component bitfield
lengths in pseudocolor modes is inconsistent.  Fix it, so that it
indicates the correct interpretation everywhere, i.e.  that 1 << length is
the number of palette entries.
