profiles: clarify mask for Plasma 6

Make clear that you shouldn't unmask Plasma 6 unless you're ready -- in some
cases, it seems Portage might show the user the mask message as a result of
backtracking even though they're not trying to unmask any of Plasma 6.

+# Don't do anything unless you're intentionally moving to Plasma 6, which is
+# masked still for a reason. If you get this message just from conflicts where

 # Plasma 6 replaces 5. For conflict resolution between KF5- and KF6-packages:
 # - put '-kf6compat' into /etc/portage/profile/use.mask
 # - enable USE=kf6compat globally
