Clarify docs/examples of attribute removal (#35872)

If values="somestring" is specified then this module normalizes it to
["somestring"]. This means that passing name="foo", values="",
state=exact results in the ldap entry having a single attribute called
foo="".

To delete all attributes "foo", regardless of their values, it is
necessary to pass name="foo", values=[], state="exact".
