Clarify the explanation of process.nextTick() in relation to the event loop: The phrase “before moving to the next phase” may be misleading, as it can imply that process.nextTick() waits for the current event-loop phase to complete. In reality, process.nextTick() callbacks run immediately after the current call stack empties, it doesn't wait for the current phase to end.

Description
I changed the explanation a little bit about the process.nextTick(). The old version could cause misunderstanding.
