landlock: Slightly improve documentation and fix spelling

Now that we have more than one ABI version, make limitation explanation
more consistent by replacing "ABI 1" with "ABI < 2".  This also
indicates which ABIs support such past limitation.

Improve documentation consistency by not using contractions.

Fix spelling in fs.c .
