* doc: mention code variables relating to 'calc_dragio'

At the end of the "Ocean" section, we mention that 'dragio' can be
computed from 'iceruf_ocn' and 'thickness_ocn_layer1', but do not
mention these code variables, nor the 'calc_dragio' setting used to
activate that computation. Mention the code variables next to their
mathematical symbol, for more clarity.

salinity-dependent freezing point, then new ice (frazil) forms.
Otherwise, heat is made available for melting the ice.

The ice-ocean drag coefficient, :math:`c_w`, can optionally be computed from the thickness of the first ocean level, :math:`h_1`, and an under-ice roughness length, :math:`z_{io}`.
When the namelist option ``calc_dragio`` is set to true, the ice-ocean drag coefficient, :math:`c_w` (``dragio``), is computed from the thickness of the first ocean level, :math:`h_1` (``thickness_ocn_layer1``), and an under-ice roughness length, :math:`z_{io}` (``iceruf_ocn``).
The computation follows :cite:`Roy15` :
