Kyle Evans 8b548776ff zfsprops(7): attempt to clarify the keylocation description
The current description is somewhat difficult to parse through, and in
some cases is a little unclear as to the behavior.

Split it into a paragraphs based on the three distinct behaviors you
may get: prompt, file URL, HTTP(S) URL.  The descriptions of the file
and HTTP(s) behavior seems fine, but prompt is a little vague- expand
on it and make it clear that the behavior is actively based on whether
the inquisitor of key-data is provided with a tty for stdin or not.

Also clarify *why* one shouldn't "place keys which should be kept secret
on the command line" and note that you *have* to supply the key via
stdin if it's a raw key, just to be sure.
