Document the probability of finality in cases where F3 is slow in progressing #944

Description

@masih

Concretely document the likelihood of F3 leading the chain away into a fork relative to the time it takes for the latest F3 instance to finalize. The context for this ask is to understand what is considered a "safe" distance from head in a case where F3 finalized tipset is far behind.

For reference the Eth Filecoin APIs use the distance of 30 based on FRC-0089 finality calculator.

Explicit ask from ecosystem:

provide a summary for the F3 FAQ on probability of finality after 10 blocks, 30 blocks, etc. or whatever values make sense? There also needs to be an upper limit to confirmations.
