Primitive docs: fix confusing `Send` in `&T`'s list
The two lists in this document describe what traits are implemented on
references when their underlying `T` also implements them. However,
while it is true that `T: Send + Sync` implies `&T: Send` (which is
what the sentence is trying to explain), it is confusing to have `Send`
in the list because `T: Send` is not needed for that. In particular,
the "also require" part may be interpreted as "both `T: Send` and
`T: Sync` are required".
Instead, move `Send` back to where it was before commit 7a477869b72e
("Makes docs for references a little less confusing"), i.e. to the `&mut`
list (where no extra nota is needed, i.e. it fits naturally) and move the
`Sync` definition/note to the bottom as something independent.
