#1694538 — [PATCH v2] staging: vboxvideo: Kconfig: Fix typos in help text

FromMartin Kepplinger <martink@posteo.de>

This fixes typos in vboxvideo's help text. Most notably, "to builtin
this module" becomes "to build this driver built-in to the kernel".

Thanks Dan. I actually also had the feeling that even though it's better,
it's not as clear as it could be. It's either a module or built-in; not both.

v2: Say "to build this driver built-in to the kernel" instead of "build in

v3: Avoid a repetition of "this driver".
