docs/reference: run.md update confusing example name 

This example was mounting `/dev/zero` as `/dev/nulo` inside the container.
The `nulo` name was intended to be a "made up / custom" name, but various
readers thought it to be a typo for `/dev/null`.

This patch updates the example to use `/dev/foobar` as name, which should
make it more clear that it's a custom name.
