Revert "Fix a typo in emacs-lisp-intro.texi"
This reverts commit 98eb6d783a482cd7ebca7ec656b0775b82c68e57.
I've consulted with Richard Stallman about this, and he says
that the original wording, "kinds of atom", is both correct
and more elegant writing. So I'm restoring the original text.
* doc/lispintro/emacs-lisp-intro.texi (Lisp Atoms): Undo the
fix of a "typo" that wasn't a typo. (Bug#51271)
