[docs]: Update installation instructions.
* INSTALL.REPO: Update characterization of our test repertoire. * INSTALL.extra: Update documented compiler requirements; I don't think GCC 2.7.1 has been supported by anyone for many years. Document ISO C++98 requirement. Drop advice about use of alternative mallocs; I haven't seen any evidence of anyone doing this or suffering because they haven't. Add guidance re: uchardet '-dev{,el}' packages per suggestion from Deri James. Fix error: "latin1" is a groff device; "latin" is not. Also fix minor style nits (capitalization, quotation style).
