fix: misleading help text for 'llama stack build' and 'llama stack run' (meta-llama#1910)

nathan-weinberg · web-flow · commit 854c2ad264e9 · 2025-04-12T01:19:11.000-07:00
# What does this PR do?
current text for 'llama stack build' and 'llama stack run' says that if
no argument is passed to '--image-name' that the active Conda
environment will be used

in reality, the active enviroment is used whether it is from conda,
virtualenv, etc.
