This rewords the section, explicitly distuingishing the cases of clients that only want a continious log stream (which can simply treat SD_JOURNAL_INVALIDATE the same way as SD_JOURNAL_APPEND) and those which want to represent on screen the full state of the log data on disk. This is an alternative to a part of PR #9060, but keeps an explanation of the destinction of handling depending on the type of client. Fixes: #8963
