Update README.md (#2458)

Browse source 
Update the README to prevent partial upgrades.

Partial upgrades are dangerous on Arch Linux.
Partial upgrades may occur when a `-y` operation is given without a corresponding `-u` operation.

Quote from the ArchWiki:
> Do not use:
> `pacman -Sy package`
> `pacman -Sy` followed by `pacman -S` package (Note the absence of `-S**u**` in the installation of the package.)
> `pacman -Syuw` (Note that `pacman -Syuw` does imply the same risks like pacman -Sy`, as it will update the pacman sync database without installing the newer packages.)
