Fixes a small inaccuracy in the description of snapshot atomicity zfs-snapshot(8) appears to contain a small error. The existing version reads "Snapshots are taken atomically, so that all snapshots correspond to the same moment in time." Per zfs_main.c, which in do_snapshot() simply loops over argv, this does not appear to be correct when multiple snapshots are specified explicitly on the command line. I believe the intent of the man page was to say that *recursive* snapshots are all created atomically. This proposed change fixes that error. Because the existing statement may confuse some readers anyway, the commit also also adds a small amount of general explanatory information that may be helpful. The change also adds an introductory sentence that summarizes what 'zfs snapshot' does in the first place. In that sentence, the text "different datasets" is intended to indicate that (again per the code) the same dataset cannot be specified multiple times on the command line.
