LibWeb/CSS: Clarify comment about cascading presentational hints

The spec allows us to either treat them as part of the UA origin, or as
its own origin before author styles. This second behaviour turns out to
be what we are currently doing, which is nice!

Funnily enough this was clarified in the spec barely a month after this
original comment was written. :^)
