Christoph Anton Mitterer b3d99e2308 man: improve BindsTo= documentation
Make “effect” plural to indicate that BindsTo= also includes the other effects
of Requires= (like starting the listed units).

The documentation of Requires= already describes that the configuring unit is
stopped/restarted if any of the list units is explicitly stopped/restarted.
This made the previous wording “in addition to the effect of Requires, it
declares that if the unit bound to is stopped, this unit will be stopped too.”
ambiguous – this is no in addition, Requires= already does that, at least for
some (namely the explicit) cases.
Resolve this by making it clear what the actual difference to Requires= is and
further mention that this also includes failed units.
