[ptxdist] [PATCH] platform: make clear that libc version is not only used for checking

[Roland Hieber]

With the old wording it reads like the version can be left empty.
However, if the libc should be installed to the target (e.g. by
selecting anything in the GLIBC or UCLIBC section), this version must be
set, or the respective targetinstall stage will error:

    ---------------------------
    target: glibc.targetinstall
    ---------------------------

    ptxdist: error: ptxd_make_xpkg_init: please define <PKG>_VERSION
