Adjust dockerng docstrings

This adds a similar documentation section to the top of the state module
to match the one in the execution module. It also updates the expected
release date of the Carbon release to reflect the new release cadence.

Why Make a Second Docker State Module?
--------------------------------------
We have received a lot of feedback on our Docker support. In the process of
implementing recommended improvements, it became obvious that major changes
needed to be made to the functions and return data. In the end, a complete
rewrite was done.
The changes being too significant, it was decided that making a separate
execution module and state module (called ``dockerng``) would be the best
option. This will give users a couple release cycles to modify their scripts,
SLS files, etc. to use the new functionality, rather than forcing users to
change everything immediately.
In the **Carbon** release of Salt (due in 2016), this execution module will
take the place of the default Docker execution module, and backwards-compatible
naming will be maintained for a couple releases after that to allow users time
to replace references to ``dockerng`` with ``docker``.
