Add an FAQ entry about the sync client's sub-directory scan limit 

As requested in #1067, this commit adds an entry to the FAQ to highlight
the fact that the sync client will never scan greater than 50
sub-directories.

Syncing breaks when attempting to sync deeper than 50 sub-directories, but the sync client does not report an error (RC=0)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The sync client has been intentionally limited to sync no deeper than
fifty sub-directories, to help prevent memory problems.
Unfortunately, it, *currently*, does not report an error when this occurs.
However, a UI notification is planned for a future release of ownCloud.
