the instructions were a bit crap, for example it wasn't
clear that you can get the firmawre pre-compiled in canoeboot
releases. adapt it accordingly.

also re-make the english homepage, based on the same
formatting from libreboot.org at this time, but with
canoeboot's own idiosyncrasies spliced in

a few stragglers from lbwww cherry picks were leftover,
referring to vendorfile insertion, but the canoeboot
build system doesn't actually do this.

Canoeboot's version doesn't handle vendor files like
the Libreboot version, but the setmac syntax is the same.

Licensing is already mentioned in the source code
for nvmutil. Putting it in the documentation just
means that it'll go out of date over time, as it
already has; instead of updating it, remove it.
Documentation is under the GNU licensing that Canoeboot
documentation uses.

put them later in the guide, so that the user reads the
guide in the exact order by which they would follow it.

reference the platform option needed in ifdtool, on some newer
platforms; canoeboot doesn't have anything needing it, but this
is generic nvmutil instructions, and nvmutil is compatible
with gbe regions of many platforms

it's in canoeboot and libreboot, but the canoeboot page
referenced libreboot; i've fixed it to reference canoeboot.

docs/hardware is redundant, because it now mostly
contains installation instructions, and docs/install
also contains hardware information. therefore, in
practise, they are both the same kind of information.
merge the two, and streamline everything. a lot of
redundant information has been removed.
docs/install/ has been re-structured in such a way
as to enable more chronological reading, to make it
easier for the average user to install Canoeboot.
This is part of a larger series of changes I'm working
on for the documentation. I'm massively auditing the
entire Canoeboot documentation.

it's what the old dell_internal.md used to be, but with
additional info merged from the old guides that were
removed in the previous revision.

90% of the info on the old pages was fluff, copied and pasted
to all the other pages.
replace them all with a single page. i've already directed the
old pages to the new one, in libreboot.org's httpd

the bucts unbrick instructions are not useful, because
libreboot already provides both bootblocks as duplicates.
we only need these guides to be for teardown, then linking
to the SPI flasher guide
