x86/bugs: Correct RSB terminology in Kconfig

Browse source

RSB stands for "Return Stack Buffer" in industry literature[1]. Update
the kernel Kconfig to use this standard term instead of the current
"Return-Speculation-Buffer".

This change aligns kernel documentation with widely accepted terminology.

The line length reduction triggers text reformatting, but no functional
text is altered.
