systemd217 dropping readahead, wiki modify needed.

After this announcement about systemd 217 dropping readahead:

* systemd's readahead implementation has been removed. In many
          circumstances it didn't give expected benefits even for
          rotational disk drives and was becoming less relevant in the
          age of SSDs. As none of the developers has been using
          rotating media anymore, and nobody stepped up to actively
          maintain this component of systemd it has now been removed.

This Arch wiki should be changed to have an alert:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Im … #Readahead

I know but don't have account and don't intend to make one because my current knowledge tells me it will be the only change I would ever make to Arch wiki in near future. Therefore alerted others to do so, just in case.

There already is a note about it in the wiki. It links to https://www.mail-archive.com/systemd-de … 21693.html
