It's trivial to run into a problem caused by the single hardware breakpoint limitation, but the existing documentation doesn't explicitly address this situation (and search results for the error message aren't particularly helpful). This commit updates the documentation with an explicit example of what happens when a breakpoint expression matches multiple locations, along with a possible workaround.
