sysctl.9: put negative sense sysctl note in own paragraph
The sysctl man page cautions against negative-sense boolean sysctls
(foobar_disable), but it gets lost at the end of a large paragraph.
Move it to a separate paragraph in an attempt to make it more clear.
This man page could use a more holistic review and edit pass. This
change is simple and straightforward and I hope provides a small but
immediate benefit.
