Clarify that mail to perlbug also goes to p5p
The wording added in 64a8e22bd3 didn't clarify that mail to perlbug is also forwarded to perl5-porters. Make this section clearer so that it now explains that perlbug is just perl5-porters + RT tracking. See the discussion after Craig A. Berry's comment in RT #73914 for reference.
