Peter Korsgaard 74a865b1fc package/wireguard-linux-compat: tweak kernel-headers < 5.6 logic
The reason why the external wireguard kernel module is not allowed with
kernel headers >= 5.6 is that wireguard is included in the upstream kernel
since 5.6 rather than some kind of (fixable) incompatibility issue.  Adjust
the comment to make that clear.

While we're at it, drop the redundant !5.6 dependency on the kernel headers
dependency comment.  If headers are older than 3.10, then they are also
older than 5.6, so the statement is redundant.

WireGuard is an extremely simple yet fast and modern VPN
that utilizes state-of-the-art cryptography. It aims to be
faster, simpler, leaner, and more useful than IPSec, while
avoiding the massive headache. It intends to be considerably
more performant than OpenVPN. WireGuard is designed as a
general purpose VPN for running on embedded interfaces and
super computers alike, fit for many different
circumstances.
Support for WireGuard is included in Linux 5.6+. This
package provides a backport of the kernel support for older
kernels.
