bug#5104: doc string of internal-lisp-face-p

[Drew Adams]

Doc string: "...if FACE names a face."
 
Please state explicitly that FACE can be a string or a symbol.
 
This is especially important because the behavior of `facep' (which is
effectively an alias for `internal-lisp-face-p') has changed over the
Emacs history. In some older Emacs versions, FACE could not be a
string, yet the doc then still talked of "naming" a face - e.g., "is a
face name or an internal face vector" (when FACE had to be a symbol,
not a string).
