(doc) admin-defined commands doc fixes:
...
- make the warning less juvenile ;-)
- de-emphasise the connection to wild repos; it's not as deep as the
doc made it out to be
- move the historical stuff out of the way

quick install in main README
...
requested by someone who told me it's high time I catered to the experts
too, and saved them some time on the install!
I took the opportunity to streamline the README (especially the "what"
section), and to prioritise the non-root method over the root method in
the install doc.

delegation: allow includes in fragments, fixup doc
...
I could not think why we disallowed includes in subconfs, since an
include is the same as inserting all those lines inline anyway.

(mirroring) reject non-local pushes if GL_HOSTNAME not set
...
We previously said all mirroring features are disabled if GL_HOSTNAME is
not set.
But what if, after mirroring has been setup, and master/slaves defined
for a repo, a slave admin fat-fingers the RC file and accidentally
comments out GL_HOSTNAME? We might end up violating RULE NUMBER ONE!

to my eternal shame (considering how proud I am of my documentation)
this was not mentioned anywhere! I'm getting old...
thanks to Pierre Habouzit for catching this
(also slipped in a few other minor doc changes. I wouldn't mix
unrelated stuff in a commit when doing code changes but it seems ok to
do this for docfixes, for some reason).

streamline the README and the install doc a fair bit, especially make
'from-client' install deprecated, and relegate it to an Appendix.
