nspawn: fix the comment about which namespaces outer_child is in
The comment says that it is still in the host's CLONE_NEWUSER namespace,
which is not true if !arg_privileged. Also, it says that the CLONE_NEWNS
namespace was created by clone(), but if !arg_privileged then it was
actually created by nsresource_allocate_userns() and switched into by
setns(). Fix those inaccuracies.
When trying to word it clearly, there are enough commas and nested clauses
that I think it's clearer to break it into a list/table.
