config-linux: Clarify where device nodes can be created

Clarify that device nodes need not be under `/dev`, but that the runtime need to
be informed of all the device nodes that are used by the
container.

Virtual-machine based runtimes such as Kata Containers need to be able to
perform adjustment on device nodes, and cannot be required to deep-scan
file-systems to do so.

The proposed wording was chosen to avoid any regression for any workload
mounding nodes elsewhere, while at the same time clarifying that correct
behaviour cannot be guaranteed if a device node is created on the host and used
by the container without being passed in the devices list.

This fixes issue #1147.
