    Assorted changes for the recently added document.
    
    Improvements:
    
    * Add instructions for installing required software on Arch Linux.
    
    Fixes:
    
    * Move a 'git remote add -t master stable [...]' from a totally wrong
      to the right place.
    
    * Fix two anchors.
    
    * Add two required packages to the openSUSE install instructions.
    
    Fine tuning:
    
    * Improve the reference section about downloading Linux mainline sources
      to make it more obvious that those are alternatives.
    
    * Include the full instructions for git bundles to ensure the remote
      gets the right name; that way the text also works stand alone.
    
    * Install ncurses and qt headers for use of menuconfig and xconfig by
      default, but tell users that they are free to omit them.
    
    * Mention ahead of time which version number are meant as example in
      commands used during the step-by-step guide.
    
    * Mention that 'kernel-install remove' might do a incomplete job.
