piem-inboxes: Clarify that :coderepo points to a working tree
The properties of piem-inboxes align with public-inbox-config names to keep things consistent, which is especially important given the upcoming support of reading inboxes from public-inbox's configuration. However, :coderepo, which needs to point to a working tree, doesn't nicely match publicinbox.$inbox.coderepo, which points to another section that in turn must point to a .git directory. I'm still undecided on whether using a different name (e.g., :code-working-tree) would be clearer, but at least document the difference to hopefully avoid some confusion.
