Update kindle on linux documentation

Browse source 
- ActivePython for x86 is gone, but using regular python, at least for the kindle decryption, works.
- The new kindle for pc hangs during wine installation, but the one presented by `winetricks kindle` works.
- The decryption keys must be manually obtained.
- vcrun2008 stops any available version of Kindle from being able to install.

I have only tested these steps for kindle for PC on linux, so these changes may step on some toes. However, it does seem the linux documentation needs updating nonetheless.

This calibre plugin replaces many previously separate DRM removal plugins. Before you install this plugin, you should uninstall any older individual DRM removal plugins, e.g. K4MobiDeDRM. The exception is the obok plugin, which should not be removed.
