client: fix typo in selectdata help text

Add minstratum and maxstratum directives to specify the minimum and
maximum allowed stratum of sources to be selected. The default values
are 0 and 15 respectively, allowing all NTP sources and refclocks.

Sources that are rejected due to having too large or too small stratum
are marked with 'r' in the selection log and selectdata report.

This is similar to the "tos floor" and "tos ceiling" settings of ntpd,
except that maxstratum is interpreted as one below the ceiling.

+/* Bind a Unix domain socket and connect it to the server chronyd socket.
+
+   Access to the sockets is restricted by the permissions and ownership
+   of the directory in which they are bound (by default /var/run/chrony).
+   The location of the chronyc socket follows the location of the chronyd
+   socket.  Due to the possibility of chronyc running under a different
+   user, the permissions of the chronyc socket need to be loosened on
+   most systems (illumos is an exception) to allow chronyd to send a
+   response to the chronyc socket.
+
+   Unfortunately, there does not seem to be a safe and portable way to
+   do that directly (e.g. a compromised chronyd process could replace it
+   with a symlink and cause a privileged chronyc process to change the
+   permissions of something else).
+
+   The workaround is to bind the socket in a randomly named subdirectory
+   hidden in another subdirectory to avoid matching an existing path and
+   force the bind()/chmod() call to fail if the visible upper directory
+   is replaced.
+
+   Note that the socket cannot be moved once bound, because the source
+   address that chronyd will see would not match the actual path and the
+   responses would not reach chronyc. */
