uart: sample position nits, fix typo, float calculation awareness
This commit amends bd50ceb314e4. Fix a typo in a comment. Rephrase the bit width percentage calculation such that readers remain aware of the necessity for floating point math in sample position calculations. This commit does not change behaviour, Python 3 always yields float results for divisions. It's about raising awareness.
