Changed the section of the preferred variant of the English language in accordance with the Canonical Documentation Style Guide.

Hello @SkyOfSteel! Sorry for the delay, and thanks for the PR - it's super helpful. Following this, I do have a task to convert the documentation to US English. |

Hello!
I noticed a discrepancy between two pages on working with documentation:
Contribute to our docs recommends the en-GB variant, provides examples, and links to the Canonical Documentation Style Guide as a justification.
Canonical Documentation Style Guide, on the other hand, mentions that Canonical previously used the UK English, but has changed to the US English, which directly contradicts the previous page.
I suggest reconciling the two pages - i.e., replacing mentions of en-GB with en-US and changing all the instances of the en-GB text with en-US text.
Please see the contents of this pull request for specific changes.
Thank you.
