fix inaccurate information of topology-manager admin guide

Topology Manager deal with Guaranteed QoS Pod.
=>Topology Manager deal with all Pod QoS Classes since 1.17

Topology Manager works on Nodes with the Static CPU Policy enabled
=> changing wording to make this clearer and adding examples

 An increasing number of systems leverage a combination of CPUs and hardware accelerators to support latency-critical execution and high-throughput parallel computation. These include workloads in fields such as telecommunications, scientific computing, machine learning, financial services and data analytics. Such hybrid systems comprise a high performance environment.
