So, what is meant by "the system's update tool"?  The Ubuntu
repositories for xubuntu 16.04 (the version I'm running) don't have
2.2.4 so I can't update from there.
That would be apt-get, apt, aptitude or any graphical tool used to install/update packages The message is from the owncloud client and the official ubuntu package sources are not the only sources you can install packages from.
Presumably I just wait until 2.2.4 *is* in the Ubuntu repositories but
that makes the message pretty pointless as I'll get the update (when
it's there) with all my other updates.  Why should OwnCloud think it's
so special that it can pop up a message about this, if every program
did the same there would be hundreds of similar messages.

You could have had a look at https://owncloud.org/install/#install-clients and followed the link to the directions for ubuntu:
