Clarify what the primary benefit of zchunk is

zstd now offers rsync-friendly output, so mentioning that zchunk files are
efficient over rsync misses the primary benefit zchunk has, namely that
zchunk files can be downloaded efficiently from normal web servers that
support range requests (which is basically all of them, except for some
rather strange proxies).
