AMDGPU/SI: Make comments more precise.

True branch instructions do behave as expected with liveness.

Avoid the phrasing "branch decision is based on a value in an SGPR"
because this could be misleading. A VALU compare instruction's
result is still based on an SGPR, even though that condition
may be divergent.
