This is a more introductory document, suitable for Part II. The arcane details move to an "Advanced macros" chapter in Part III.

The first commit adds a short note which I believe will reduce worries in people who work with closures very often and read the Rust book for their first time.
The second commit consists solely of tiny typo fixes. In some cases, I changed "logical" quotations like
She said, "I like programming".
to
She said, "I like programming."
because the latter seems to be the prevalent style in the book.
The Rust Programming Language book has no explanation of what `i32` actually means. I have added an explanation for the first time the reader encounters this type.
@steveklabnik Trying out the Glossary idea.
Added the paragraph about 'complicated words' because I think it would be useful to those contributing to the book. Maybe this should not be here
The book in "hello-world" tells that there are configs for some programs and gives a link to main repo's src/etc. Actually, these configs moved to separate repos some days ago. This PR adds a markdown file with links and moves "hello-world" link about editors to point directly to this new file.
Highlights:
* Adds an 'uninstall.sh' script to `/usr/local/lib/rustlib/uninstall.sh`, the path to which is printed during installation.
* Components can be deselected during install, like `install.sh --without=rust-docs`.
* Components can be listed with `install.sh --list-components`.
* Vastly reduces spew during install (but supporting a `--verbose` option).
Typicall install run looks like:
```
brian@brianX1:~/dev/multirust⟫ sudo ./install.sh
[sudo] password for brian:
install: creating uninstall script at /usr/local/lib/rustlib/uninstall.sh
install: installing component 'rustc'
install: installing component 'cargo'
install: installing component 'rust-docs'
Rust is ready to roll.

Needs to be merged right before corresponding PRs to cargo and rust-packaging.

While having a look at the Rust book I found this tiny error. In my opinion this if should be all lowercase, because it follows a colon, but I am no native speaker, so I am probably wrong. Also it is a very tiny change, so feel free to include it in any bigger documentation patch.
Replaced outdated use of the `range(start, end)` function where
approriate with `start..end`, and tweaked the examples to compile and run with the latest rust. I also fixed two periphery compile issues in reference.md which were occluding whether there were any new errors created by these changes, so I fixed them.
