Edit installing instructions (#3844)
* Replace "just run-tags install-all/setup-all,start" with "just install-all/setup-all"

Thanks to the tip by Slavi that the overhead of ensure-matrix-users-created is negligible.

* Edit installing instructions

- Move the anchor links to docs/just.md
- Add note about running "ensure-matrix-users-created" tags, if ansible-playbook's tags not "setup-all,ensure-matrix-users-created,start", ie. either "setup-all,start", "setup-email2matrix,start", "setup-aux-files,setup-corporal,start", or "setup-matrix-user-verification-service,start"

* Update descriptions about installation

- Introduce the most conservative and stable raw ansible-playbook command.
- Introduce the just commands on installing.md and maintenance-upgrading-services.md, not on quick-start.md, since it is too early for quick start guide readers who are just starting to climb learning curve to use the shortcuts.

* Update docs/installing.md and docs/quick-start.md: mention "make roles"

This commit adds mentions to "make roles" and a note about the preference of ansible-playbook commands over the just "recipes".

quick-start.md intends to be referred by those who have never used the playbook to set up a server, so it is safer to regard that it is not clear to them what exactly the just "recipes" are made of, ie. it takes some time and experience until someone understands simplicity of them. For beginners, I believe that we should prefer the basics over simplicity, from the educational point of view.

If someone feels tired of using the same command repetitively, then the person will have been already well accustomed to the way how the playbook works and how the server is supposed to be maintained, and the person is "qualified" to use the just "recipes", and should be able to use them with confidence, distinguishing the playbook tags from the "recipes", for example, from "just install-all" and "ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=install-all". Such level of familiarity and experience should not be expected on the quick start guide.

* Update instructions to update Ansible roles

Also: move the detailed explanation about "just roles" from installing.md to maintenance-upgrading-services.md

TBD: create a dedicated documentation for the "just" program and the concept of its "recipe" (shortcut of commands)

* Add a note about cases to create multiple accounts/users

Since one of the quick start guide's goals is to set up an own user account, this commit adds the note about creating multiple accounts/users to installing.md and registering-users.md only. It should be fine as registering-users.md is linked from quick-start.md

Also:
- On installing.md and quick-start.md, change instruction from what encourages to select "admin=yes" or "admin=no" to what encourages to use "admin=yes", since your user account will be the sole user on the server, as long as you set up the server by following the documentation
- Remove the link to registering-users.md from quick-start.md as the documentation is already linked above, under the header of the section
- Sync docs/installing.md with other documentation

Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org>

* Remove a line about setting "admin=yes" to reduce the amount of information

Because quick-start.md is getting longer with much information, it removes the note in favor of the linked registering-users.md documentation. The note is available on installing.md as well, and details about adding user accounts for other people can (and should) be checked on those documentations.

Also, this commit edits lines above these notes to make it clear that your user account will be an administrator of the server.

With this commit, the amount of the information about adding user accounts will be: registering-users.md > installing.md > quick-start.md

* Replace repetitive information about upgrading with an anchor link to docs/maintenance-upgrading-services.md
