FAQ migration

I migrated the FAQ to the pharo book.

I've added a few comments where corrections / verifications are needed that I couldn't do myself.

There are also some formatting issues (tabs are converted to spaces which are used as indents so some code is indented quite a bit more compared to other code).

Since the "hard work" is now done, this is a call to everyone to please take a look at the FAQ and update it. Some of the stuff in there is really outdated.

I'm calling it a day. Good night.

Hm, this page is pretty empty...

BTW, there's another FAQ, which I had written over some time: http://www.pharo-project.org/documentation/faq. Does it make sense to keep both (a technical and a non-technical FAQ)? Or should we merge this one also into the book?

Re: FAQ migration

Yeah, should probably better contain the TOC to the FAQ entries.

Perhaps, to make sure we don't forget anything and that we cover everything a newbie could ask himself, I think we should take a close look at all the examples included in Dave N. Smith' FAQ and do something similar (or at least get some inspiration from his FAQ) :
