man: drop comment about ECC vs. RSA and Yubikey

The comment is pointless, ECC systematically doesn't allow
encryption/decryption directly, only RSA does that. If you want to use
ECC for asymmetric encryption/decryption you have to combine it with key
exchange scheme and symmetric scheme. This all is not a limitation of
the Yubikey, hence don't claim so. It's just how ECC is.
