Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 509f701ab3 man/systemd-boot: recommend holding space by default
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/15509/files#r2234113960 complains that the
advice is still not clear enough. systemd-boot itself says
  "Menu hidden. Hold down key at bootup to show menu."
so let's do the same and tell users to hold down space as the first option.
This should work fine for 99% of people. Then invert the following advice to
try repeated pressing as the alternative option.

Also, fix the advice about --boot-loader-menu=. The whole para is about getting
the menu to show, so 0 is not a good value.

Follow-up for https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/15509.
