clean up the vacation mode section to be more clear

- notes that foregejo, and therefore codeberg.org don't have a way to simply mark all issues/PRs as read-only
- notes how illness based "vacation mode" works
- italicizes the "not" for explaining that things are not deleted

This repo gets put into "vacation mode" periodically through out the year. We do this because we need time away from the repo, and during that time, we can't guarentee any moderation, so for safety, no commenting on the repo can be allowed during that time.
During vacation mode, we will disable Issues and Pull Requests and will not actively work on the repo in any way. Even though the Issues and Pull Requests are temporarily hidden, they are not deleted. The repo will still be public. There will be a notice at the top of README explaining that we're in vacation mode and when we will be back. When the vacation is over, the Issues and Pull Requests will be re-enabled, and all previous Issues/Pull Requests will be visible again.
During vacation mode, we will disable Issues and Pull Requests and will not actively work on the repo in any way. Unfortunately, Forgejo does not have a way to mark all Issues/Pull Requests as read-only, so we can only disable them, which hides them from view. Even though the Issues and Pull Requests are temporarily hidden, they are *not* deleted. The repo will still be public. There will be a notice at the top of README explaining that we're in vacation mode and when we will be back. When the vacation is over, the Issues and Pull Requests will be re-enabled, and all previous Issues/Pull Requests will be visible again.
Vacations typically last anywhere from 3 days to 2 weeks depending on the owner's schedule, and are announced in advance.

The owners reserve the right to put the repo into vacation mode if they are unwell and unable to tend to the repo.
The owners reserve the right to put the repo into vacation mode if they are unwell and unable to tend to the repo (in this case, we'll still add a notice to the README, but there may be little to no announcement depending on the illness severity).
