bug#8713: 23.3.50; Improvement to flymake docstring

[Reuben Thomas]

The help for the item

Flymake Compilation Prevents Syntax Check

is:

“If non-nil, syntax check won't be started in case compilation is running.”

which could be made clearer by rewording it as:

If non-nil, syntax check won't be started if compilation is running.
