And for good measure, mention that it is comma-separated (even though it
can also be space-separated).

This came up while working on [1] where it took me some time to figure out the
format.
The rendered docs reads at the moment:
> nameserver: <string>
>
> Sets DNS server IP address for a container. Create will automatically use the setting from the host if neither searchdomain nor nameserver are set.
which does not indicate this might be a list nor how it is separated.
