[doc] Reference CFF2 partial-instancing work for the avar2 suppression

The self-contained-pin suppression for CFF2 faces can be lifted once
partial CFF2 instancing lands (harfbuzz/harfbuzz#4710); fontTools
implements the design to port in fonttools/fonttools#3506
(instantiateCFF2). Point both the code comment and AVAR2-INSTANCING.md
at them, and note that the underlying CFF2 limitation also silently
flattens non-avar2 partial instancing.
