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 Libreboot.
This is part of a larger series of changes I'm working
on for the documentation. I'm massively auditing the
entire Libreboot documentation.

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

there doesn't need to be a big load of text on every
page that features this warning. a bold warning at the
top of the page will be sufficient.

i grepped and did a thorough search/replace.

it really annoys me that people don't read manuals
i just have to make this warning as loud as possible, in
all the places people look

It also bypasses SMM BIOS lock protections by disabling SMIs
(Dell's BIOS doesn't set a certain bit in the chipset leaving
it vulnerable to this) in addition to telling the EC to set
the descriptor override.
