The snapcraft.yaml reference incorrectly suggested using `craftctl` to start services. Runtime service management is done with `snapctl` (often from hooks). Update text and link. Fixes canonical#5738 Signed-off-by: Amanuel Lemma Dessalegn <amanlem24@gmail.com>

Thanks for catching this!
My only request is that we clean up the parenthetical clause a bit.
