Description
Clarifies that the "path" property in pkcs11 manifests can be relative, everywhere.
And prepend "PKCS 11" to "module" to emphasize that this fragment of the table is about the manifests for the pkcs11 API, to avoid confusion in case the reader was looking for the native messaging manifest.
Motivation
The documentation incorrectly claims that the path has to be absolute.
Additional details
Undocumented support for relative paths existed for a long while, and became an explicit first-class supported feature in https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1759162
