voicemail.conf: Fix incorrect comment about #include.
A comment at the top of voicemail.conf says that #include cannot be used in voicemail.conf because this breaks the ability for app_voicemail to auto-update passwords. This is factually incorrect, since Asterisk has no problem updating files that are #include'd in the main configuration file, and this does work in voicemail.conf as well.
