[PATCH v3 3/3] samples/landlock: Clarify option parsing behaviour

[Matthieu Buffet <matthieu@buffet.re>]

Clarify the distinction between filesystem variables (mandatory)
and all others (optional).
For optional variables, explain the difference between unset variables
(no access check performed) and empty variables (nothing allowed for
lists of allowed paths/ports, or no effect for lists of scopes).
List LL_SCOPED values understood and their effect.
