vimdiff: clarify the sigil used for marking the buffer to save
The original documentation from 7b5cf8be18 (vimdiff: add tool documentation, 2022-03-30) mistakenly described the marker as an asterisk, which is the character "*". The code and examples have always looked for an arobase ("@"). Signed-off-by: D.

When `MERGED` is not present in the layout, you must "mark" one of the
-buffers with an asterisk. That will become the buffer you need to edit and
+buffers with an arobase (`@`). That will become the buffer you need to edit and
save after resolving the conflicts.
