[pmg-devel] [PATCH docs 4/8] installation: repos: improve & align wording with pve-docs

Most of the changes are taken from pve-docs to align the exact wording
in general, as well as changing a few subtle things to improve the
overall reading flow.

The equivalent changes will be done for pve-docs too to ensure they are
really the same in the end.
