hacking: some more fixlets
* HACKING (Release Procedure): Place the list of pre-release bootstrap-and-test commands on a line of its own, so it's easy to select and then paste it into a terminal window. Fix the explanation of "make git-release", as, since the previous change, "make git-release" would simply run "make dist" rather than "make distcheck". Suggestion from Jim Meyering.
