    Reword description of SXID_* tunable properties
    
    The SXID_* tunable properties only influence processes that are
    AT_SECURE, so make that a bit more explicit in the documentation and
    comment.
    
    Revisiting the code after a few years I managed to confuse myself, so
    I imagine there could be others who may have incorrectly assumed like
    I did that the SXID_ERASE tunables are not inherited by children of
    non-AT_SECURE processes.
