Merge #15659: [docs] fix findFork comment

c968780785 [docs] fix comment: the return value of findFork is _not_ an ancestor when the specified block is on the active chain (r8921039)

Pull request description:

  The return value of findFork is an ancestor of the specified block only when specified block is _not_ on the active chain. When it is on the active chain, the return value is the specified block itself, not an ancestor of it.
