[MINOR][CORE] Fix incorrect documentation of WritableConverter
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
`WritableConverter` and `WritableFactory` work in opposite directions. But both of them are documented with same description:
> A class encapsulating how to convert some type T to Writable. It stores both the Writable class corresponding to T (e.g. IntWritable for Int) and a function for doing the conversion.
This error is a result of commit 2604939. As a note, `WritableFactory` was added from commit d37978d, which resolves [SPARK-4795](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-4795) with the correct description.
This PR fix the documentation of `WritableConverter`, along with some improvements on type description.
## How was this patch tested?
`build/mvn clean checkstyle:checkstyle`
Author: Lee Dongjin <dongjin@apache.org>
Closes #16830 from dongjinleekr/feature/fix-writableconverter-doc.
