man: document recent changes
This drops documentation of KERNEL_INSTALL_MACHINE_ID as machine-info field (though we'll still read it for compat). This updates the kernel-install man page to always say "ENTRY-TOKEN" instead of "MACHINE-ID" where appropriate, to clear the confusion up between the two. This also tries to fix how we denote env vars (always prefix with $ and without = suffix), and other vars (without $ but with = suffix) Other fixes.
