Restructure layout of preseeding example (sorry joeyh)
- split long lines; make this visible with continuation characters
(overly long lines were ugly in html and cut off in pdf versions)
- add a note to warn about split lines
- use spaces to create columns (tabs don't work)
- make columns as consistent as possible
- add some extra lines to improve readability of comments

De-emphasise the use of debconf-get-selections since it does not produce an
immediatly usable preconfig file. Move the example-preseed file to an
appendix, and move the file around in the tree to match.

Added section for booting the installer. In the old manual, this became
very confusing because there is more arch-dependent info than generic
info. So I changed the structure for this chapter to be mostly organized
by arch.
Unfortunately, it is in _very_ rough shape, and won't validate. I thought
it would be better to start getting content out there, and maybe somebody
can help clean the xml up.
