put a note under LoadAnimation documenting possible hard error

I ran into this cryptic error "Cannot load the AnimationClipProvider Service." when trying to load an animation. I did some searching and the root cause seems to be calling load animation on an animator that isnt yet parented to the workspace. I have no clue why this is a necessity at all, let alone pressing enough to warrant a hard error. This seems to be a long standing problem that occurs on occasion for humanoids and the regular player model as well, causing some users to have broken animations from the default animation script erroring.
