improve doc for outputs and hardware

Changed my mind about "installer" as a first-class concept, at least
in the current implementation. Not every documented output is an
installer

GL.iNet GL-MT300N-v2
********************
The GL-MT300N-v2 "Mango" is is very similar to the MT300A, but is
based on MT7628 instead of MT7620. It's also marginally cheaper
and comes in a yellow case not a blue one. It's different again
to the v1, which has only half the RAM.
The GL-MT300N-v2 "Mango" is is very similar to the :ref:`MT300A <GL.iNet GL-MT300A>, but is
based on the MT7628 chipset instead of MT7620. It's also marginally cheaper
and comes in a yellow case not a blue one. Be sure your device is
v2 not v1, which is a different animal and has only half as much RAM.
Installation
============
The stock vendor firmware is a fork of OpenWrt, meaning that the
binary created by :ref:`system-outputs-flashimage` can be flashed
using the vendor web UI or the U-Boot emergency "unbrick" routine.
For flashing from an existing Liminix system (we think) it
is necessary to first boot into a :ref:`system-outputs-kexecboot`
system, otherwise you'll be overwriting flash partitions while
they're in use - and that might not end well.
