a03ba31888 Improve README.bootstrap
During the bootstrap process it is necessary to clean the build tree between
the initial and complete builds.  This patch describes this and adds
commands to the instructions that clean the build tree.

As compilation can take a long time I've also added a paragraph describing
how to instruct make to run multiple parallel tasks.

README.bootstrap:
    As above.

1739688400 Add a new option to configure, --enable-minimal-install.
When this option is the only library grade that will be installed is the one
that is being used to build the compiler.  (This grade will also be set as the
default grade for the compiler that is being built.)  The intended use of this
option is to allow for the installation of a boostrap system from the source
distribution.

configure.ac:
    Implement --enable-minimal-install.

    Re-order some stuff.

README.boostrap:
    Users building a bootstrap compiler should use the new option
    rather than just doing --enable-libgrades=asm_fast.gc, since
    the latter won't necessarily result in a working system.

.INSTALL.in:
    Document the new option.

6435079978 Make some minor edits to README.bootstrap.
README.bootstrap:
    Correct some oversimplifications.  (eg: asm_fast.gc won't work on OS X).

    Adjust some prose to make it clearer.
