[luatex] Why does LuaTeX show the middle dot instead of ano teleia?

The documentation for that feature is ... scarce.  It is only briefly
mentioned in the 'Changes' section of the 'luaotfload' manual, lacking
a reference in the main body (a usage example would be nice).  It is
also completely lacking in the 'fontspec' manual.

Honestly, I would have never found this by myself.  So: please update
the documentation!  All the nifty additions are in vain if users don't
know how to find and use them.
