docs: n_units_reporting is category-conditional, not a response rate

Closes uscogdata#36. It counts governments with rows for the requested
category, so a surveyed government that genuinely spends nothing there
is indistinguishable from one never surveyed. In FY2022, a complete
census year, Georgia reports 393 of 567 cities for Police -- the gap is
cities that contract to the sheriff.

Documents the comparison that IS valid: same category, census year vs
sample year.
