systemd-cat does not connect the standard *input* of a process to the journal

The first paragraph of the description of the systemd-cat utility incorrectly referred to stdin when it obviously meant stderr: the other fd that it connects to the journal via a unix(7) domain socket, as clarified in the following paragraphs.

I've also replaced "process" with "command" as in that mode, systemd-cat executes a file and does not spawn a process.
