PM / Runtime: Update runtime_idle() documentation for return value meaning

As of commit 45f0a85c8258 ('PM / Runtime: Rework the "runtime idle"
helper routine'), the return value of ->runtime_idle() is no longer
ignored by the PM core, but used to decide whether to suspend the
device or not.

Update the documentation to match the code.
