General improvements

- Free like GNU wrote a guide on how to use XFCE on the XO.
- FFM wrote a Update paths page that combined the olpc-update pages and Activated upgrade pages into one big page, while keeping the pages synced with one another. (Disclosure: This article was primarily authored by FFM)
