Removes what no longer holds: the SWIG comparison, the hand-copied C install steps (now a link to https://ta-lib.org/install/c/), the troubleshooting items about building the 0.4-era C library, setup.py install. Wheels first, then Building from source and Troubleshooting, both before the function list, which is regenerated from docs/funcs.md (it listed about 140 of 237 functions). docs/install.md loses its SourceForge 0.4.0 steps.

A second PR trims Troubleshooting further and is meant to be merged after this one.

The intro quotes the current ta-lib.org homepage instead of the SWIG
comparison. Installing the TA-Lib C library yourself now points at
https://ta-lib.org/install/c/ rather than copying its steps; wheels first,
then one "Building from source" section, then Troubleshooting, both before
the function list. Troubleshooting items about building the 0.4-era C
library (libtool paths with spaces, config.guess on ARM64, 32-bit headers)
and the VS Code completion tip (typing stubs ship since 0.5) are removed.
`python setup.py install` becomes `python -m pip install .`. The function
list is regenerated from docs/funcs.md: it listed about 140 of the 237
functions and no Math groups. docs/install.md loses its SourceForge 0.4.0
instructions.
