Fix wording on Status field
Conflicting text was added that contradicts what the Status field can be when an EP lands. Instead refer back to the main text where this is explained. Fix minor grammar mishap, change "a" to "an". Fixes: f5875b4 "Revise Format section" PR-URL: nodejs#16 Reviewed-By: James M Snell <jasnell@gmail.com>
