Spice user manual refers to nonexistent feature "Arbitrary resolution"

Description
As discussed in https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=93304, there is no support for automatically updating guest resolution to match the client window. The user manual states that this functionality exists, under the name "Arbitrary Resolution".
Having come from VirtualBox, I expected this functionality, and spent a lot of time trying to figure it out before finding the linked bug.
Please consider updating the user manual to
-
Indicate that this feature does not work in modern versions of Windows, or perhaps at all, and
-
Please consider renaming the feature to something a little more meaningful. I'd suggest "automatically resize virtual guest display".
