  * Short circuit GET on ETags match
  
  When client does a conditional GET/HEAD with If-none-match:, if the
  condition fails (ie, the client's ETag matches the file's) then we can
  short-circuit the whole process and immediately return an empty body.

 These edits were suggested by my watching over Jake Appelbaum's shoulder as he completely ignored/skipped/missed install.html and also as he decided that debian.txt wouldn't help him with basic installation. Then I threw in a few docs edits that have been sitting around in my sandbox asking to be committed for months.
