Improve description of Running and Paused booleans
Commit abd72d4008
added
a "FIXME" comment to the container "State", mentioning
that a container cannot be both "Running" and "Paused".
This comment was incorrect, because containers on
Linux actually _must_ be running in order to be
paused.
This patch adds additional information both in a
comment, and in the API documentation to clarify
that these booleans are not mutually exclusive.
