[PATCH wayland-web v0] rephrasing the index.html to be more acurate

[Benoit Gschwind]

Hello,

Thank you Bryce. You contribution is good, I have just two comments:
  - I would use "main" instead of "principle"
  - while Wayland, LibWayland ant Weston is my favorite wording, it's 
not my favorite capitalization. My laziness tell me to not capitalize at 
all, but my education tell me to capitalize proper nouns.

Best regards
