Make the ONIE installation instructions easier to read by aligning with common terminology

Addresses #3

This still misses one term that I find particularly unfortunate: "MBC" for "Main Board CPU". It is problematic for several reasons:

  • Nobody uses this term
  • It is awfully close to "BMC" (which is common usage), which confuses people
  • It is imprecise, because when the text talks about "MBC", it really means the switch control plane as a whole, or the management interface of the switch.
