Rusty Russell a6bd8e1303 lguest: comment documentation update.
Took some cycles to re-read the Lguest Journey end-to-end, fix some
rot and tighten some phrases.

Only comments change.  No new jokes, but a couple of recycled old jokes.

/*P:500 Just as userspace programs request kernel operations through a system
* call, the Guest requests Host operations through a "hypercall". You might
* notice this nomenclature doesn't really follow any logic, but the name has
* been around for long enough that we're stuck with it. As you'd expect, this
* code is basically a one big switch statement. :*/
