    docs: Move INSTALL.in to INSTALL.md
    
    We hadn’t been substituting the version number in properly for a while,
    so maybe just abandon that approach and rewrite the instructions to not
    refer to a specific version number.
    
    This simplifies things a bit, and means the install instructions can be
    read online in GitLab.
