Reword the dedup limitation for Edon-R

The old wording was effectively "You can not use this (except you can)",
which just seems confusing.

This feature enables the use of the Edon-R hash algorithm for checksum,
including for nopwrite (if compression is also enabled, an overwrite of
a block whose checksum matches the data being written will be ignored).
In an abundance of caution, Edon-R can not be used with dedup
(without verification).
In an abundance of caution, Edon-R requires verification when used with
dedup: \fBzfs set dedup=edonr,verify\fR. See \fBzfs\fR(8).
Edon-R is a very high-performance hash algorithm that was part
of the NIST SHA-3 competition. It provides extremely high hash
