Addresses https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/15513 "Resource type 'cron' fails with 'target' parameter" by clarifying that a username is the target, not a file.

Without this patch applied the behavior of `target` in the cron type isn't made clear.
This is a problem because users report trying to use a file as the target instead of
the intended username, producing unexpected results.

This patch clarifies the behavior of `target` by improving the description docstring.
