Documentation: note styling for bit fields

Our codebase uses a lot of bit field variables, generally to mark
boolean type variables. While there is a formatting rule in the
'.clang-format', there is no guideline specified in the
'CodingGuidelines'.

Since the '.clang-format' is not yet enforced, let's also add a
guideline with the same rule as mentioned in the '.clang-format', which
is to not use any spaces around the colon, like so:

    unsigned my_field:1;
    unsigned other_field:1;
    unsigned field_with_longer_name:1;

This would allow us not to modify the clang-format file, and more
importantly, discourage people from doing ugly alignment with spaces,
i.e.

    unsigned my_field               : 1;
    unsigned            other_field : 1;
    unsigned field_with_longer_name : 1;
