Explain status field correctly in Deployments API

Manuel Grabowski requested to merge mg-deploymentsapistatusfield-20230705 into master

What does this MR do and why?

It seems that the status description was copy&pasted from the list API endpoint over to the create one – filtering for a status doesn't really make sense when creating a new one, and I verified that the endpoint works just like you'd expect: The value provided for status is used for the newly created environment, there's no filtering happening.

Also confirmed here on Slack:

This is almost just a Docs MR, but the description is also present in the deployments.rb file. No actual code is changed, though, just a comment.

Screenshots or screen recordings

Screenshots are required for UI changes, and strongly recommended for all other merge requests.
