doc: Improve "Installing Guix from Guix" section.
Reported by Mark H. Weaver <mhw@netris.org>. * README (Installing Guix from Guix): Explicitly mention $PATH separately. Mention $ACLOCAL_PATH, not $ACLOCAL. Give the exact command to install the dependencies. Remove mention of $GUIX_LD_WRAPPER_ALLOW_IMPURITIES, which is no longer needed.
