refactor: Small clarifications to authz docs and one error description (#11506)
## Description

This small PR is trying to clarify the documentation that I found ambiguous when reading it.
Furthermore, it makes one error message more precise ("non-negative" --> "positive").

In particular:
 - I clarified that the field `AcceptResponse.Accept` will be set to `true` when an authorization is accepted, but **will not** be set to `false` otherwise (instead, the function `Accept` will return an error).
 - I clarified that the field `AcceptResponse.Updated` will not always be populated: it will be `nil` unless there are real changes to the authorization
 - I changed the error message in the `send_authorization.go` function, when `IsAllPositive()` returns `false` from _spend limit cannot be negitive_ to _spend limit must be positive_. I emphasized the fact that spend limit must be positive in the documentation.

This is my first contribution to the Cosmos-SDK codebase so if I made some mistake the process (wrt the checklist), guide me patiently, pls.

Abstract

Authorizations must be granted for a particular Msg service method one by one using an implementation of the Authorization interface.
