README: changes and fixups

	Two orthogonal goals:
	- try to make README look a little nicer on phabricator by using
	  Remarkup syntax for commands (using `` instead of using a closing ')
	- try to make README look a little nicer on github.

	- Don't encourage `make world` when the handbook specifies otherwise
	- Change language around documentation to be a bit clearer
