spec: more precise prose for special case of append

As written, the special case for append may be interpreted
such that any first argument that is assignable to []byte
is permissible, including nil. This change makes makes it
clear that a slice argument is required.

Not a language change. The compiler always expected a slice
argument.

Fixes #76226.
