[DOCS] Clarify when SLM deletes expired snapshots (#73155)

Browse source 
Changes:
* Removes an error in the create SLM policy API's `schedule` parameter
  def. `schedule` is not used to delete expired snapshots.

* Updates the `expire_after` parameter def to mention the
  `slm.retention_schedule` cluster setting.
