Refine the guidelines for rmgrdesc authors.
Clarify the goals of the recently added guidelines for rmgrdesc authors:
to avoid gratuitous inconsistencies across resource managers, and to
make it reasonably easy to write a reusable custom parser.
Beyond that, the guidelines leave rmgrdesc authors with a significant
amount of leeway. This even includes the leeway to invent custom
conventions (in cases where it's warranted).
Follow-up to commit 7d8219a4.
