Carl Meyer 6ed7d40727 Fixed #18115 - added warning about overlaid install.
Setup.py now warns if it detects that Django is being installed over top
of a previous installation that was never removed. This should only
happen when installing with ``python setup.py install``, as pip
automatically uninstalls before installing a new version and
easy_install installs as an egg directory.

Also generally updated the installation doc.

The documentation in this tree is in plain text files and can be viewed using
any text file viewer.

Technically speaking, it uses ReST (reStructuredText) [1], and the Sphinx
documentation system [2].  This allows it to be built into other forms for
easier viewing and browsing.

To create an HTML version of the docs:

* Install Sphinx (using ``sudo pip install Sphinx`` or some other method)

* In this docs/ directory, type ``make html`` (or ``make.bat html`` on
  Windows) at a shell prompt.

The documentation in _build/html/index.html can then be viewed in a web browser.
