Fixes #857

What changed

The automatic installation article only said "a script installs and configures everything". Added a section What the script does (EN) / Was das Script macht (DE) that

  • explains that the script announces each step and asks before running it, so steps can be skipped,
  • lists the nine steps in the order idoit-install performs them (OS detection and requirement checks, proxy, distribution packages incl. memcached, PHP and PHP-FPM, Apache with virtual host and event MPM, MariaDB, i-doit download in the chosen variant EVAL/pro/open plus optional first tenant, cron jobs and the idoit CLI wrapper, idoit-backup/idoit-restore with a first backup),
  • links to the README of the i-doit/scripts repository for the details, as the issue asks.

Source

Steps taken from the main flow of the current idoit-install script (https://github.com/i-doit/scripts), cross-checked against the repository README.
