doc: clarify sort --key handling of default field separators

* doc/coreutils.texi (sort invocation): Mention in the summary
dicussion that --key is used to specify fields.  Give a summary
in the --key description, of the most common use case of specifying
a field, and that by default those fields include the blank separators
at the start of each field in the comparisons.
