clarify "other" navs can reference remote resources #1246

The 3.1 revision clarified that nav element can reference remote resources so long as they aren't one of the three epub-defined lists (toc, landmarks, page-list).

Unfortunately, we ended up with the following overly-liberal sounding statement:

For all other nav types, [the href attribute] MAY reference any resource, regardless of whether it is a Publication Resource, or whether it is Local or Remote Resource.

As noted w3c/epubcheck#890, this sounds contradictory to the requirement that all linked resources have to be in the spine. This PR fixes the statement with the following alternative wording:

For all other nav types, it MAY also reference Remote Resources.
