Correct tooltip of Edge Angle node.

"angle in radians between"

There is no reason to point the units of the value.
This does depend on the subtype of the socket.

"where they meet at an edge"

Here is 2 way to compute face normal: average normal for all surface or normal
of triangle which is a part of the surface.
If you say that the normal is from place where they meet at an edge then i'd
treat this as using the normal of the triangle which is the nearest part of the
fact to the edge. But this is just wrong (based on the code). For the reason,
just say that this is face normal which is generally accepted as just average normal of any n-gon.

"Flat edges and Non-manifold edges"

Since the normal is computed as average for whole the face, its more clear
to say that face have to be flat or manifold. Second part is that Flat can
be destructive which is produce other result, so add note for that.

Computing this value is faster than the signed angle"

No reason to point speed measurement in a tooltip, this is different features in any case.
