Explicitly mention that `Vec::reserve` is based on len not capacity

I spent a good chunk of time tracking down a buffer overrun bug that
resulted from me mistakenly thinking that `reserve` was based on the
current capacity not the current length. It would be helpful if this
were called out explicitly in the docs.
