Rewrite the Updating from Source section of the Handbook

Summary: The section of the Handbook that documents building from source is byzantine and bizarre, disjointed and difficult to follow.  Rip it out by the roots and start over.  This rewrite shows etcupdate as preferred to mergemaster.  It begins with a Quick Start to summarize the process.  Later sections add more detail.  Some sections need more details, like the ones lacking any detail at all.

Test Plan:
Repeat until adequate to commit:
  Rewrite document.
  Show to people.
  Hope they will help fix flaws.
  Fix flaws.
