[Documentation] Add description for VoteTally's methods (paritytech#3140
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
)

# Description

While methods' names on [`VoteTally`][1] trait might be self-explanatory
at first sight, the distinction between `support` and `approval` can be
a bit ambiguous for some readers. This PR aims to clarify the
distinction and inform about the expected values for every not yet
documented method on this trait.

# Checklist

"Description" section above
- [ ] My PR follows the [labeling requirements](CONTRIBUTING.md#Process)

  required)

applicable)

feature works (if applicable)
