Subject: reflect: match MakeMapWithSize docs about initial capacity with spec

reflect: match MakeMapWithSize docs about initial capacity with spec

Following the spec clarification in CL 40393, copy that text
to reflect docs to state that the initial capacity of MakeMapWithSize
is a hint/approximate.

Fixes #19903
