index-pack: make get_base_data() comment clearer
A comment mentions that we may free cached delta bases via
find_unresolved_deltas(), but that function went away in f08cbf60fe
(index-pack: make quantum of work smaller, 2020-09-08). Since we need to
rewrite that comment anyway, make the entire comment clearer.
