The existing guidance is ambiguous: it first suggests adding
Fixes:andRefs:directly to the commit message, then says the landing toolingautomatically copies them from the pull request description.
This change clarifies that these trailers should normally be included in the
pull request description, avoiding unnecessary duplication. It also documents
the manual landing case and clarifies that the sample shows the final commit
message after landing.
