Edit descriptions about installation of components (#3842)
* Replace installation command shortcut for the "just" program with the most conservative raw ansible-playbook command

This commit replaces installation command shortcut ("recipe") for the "just" program with the raw ansible-playbook command, so that the shortcut will be added to it later. The command is so conservative that failure of the command will mean something is clearly broken.

* Add comments about using setup-all instead of install-all

* Add description about shortcut command with the "just" program to the ansible-playbook command with "setup-all" and "start" tags

It also explains difference between "just install-all" and "just setup-all" recipes. The explanation is based on docs/playbook-tags.md

* Update raw ansible-playbook command to have it do what "just install-all" or "just setup-all" does

Since "just install-all" or "just setup-all" invokes "ensure-matrix-users-created" as well, it needs adding to the raw ansible-playbook command.

* Remove "ensure-matrix-users-created" from the raw ansible-playbook command which does not need it

Also: update the "just" recipes accordingly. "just install-all" and "just setup-all" run "ensure-matrix-users-created" tag as well, therefore they need to be replaced with "run-tags" recipes to skip "ensure-matrix-users-created"

* Update docs/configuring-playbook-etherpad.md: add ensure-matrix-users-created to the raw ansible-playbook

Signed-off-by: Suguru Hirahara <acioustick@noreply.codeberg.org>

* Add description about "ensure-matrix-users-created" and create a list with description about shortcut commands with "just"

This commit also fixes list item capitalization and punctuation.

* Update docs/configuring-playbook-matrix-corporal.md and docs/configuring-playbook-email2matrix.md: adopt common instructions

* Replace "run the installation command" with "run the playbook with tags"

Now that shortcut commands for the "just" program are displayed along with the existing "installation command", this commit replaces "run the installation command" with "run the playbook with tags" in order to prevent misunderstanding and confusion.

* Update docs/configuring-playbook-alertmanager-receiver.md: remove the direction to proceed to Usage

Such a kind of direction is not used on other documentation, so it should be fine to just remove it.

# Setting up Mautrix wsproxy for bridging Android SMS or Apple iMessage (optional)
The playbook can install and configure [mautrix-wsproxy](https://github.com/mautrix/wsproxy) for you.
See the project's [documentation](https://github.com/mautrix/wsproxy#readme) to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you.
## Adjusting the playbook configuration
To enable the bridge, add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file:
```yaml
matrix_mautrix_wsproxy_enabled: true
matrix_mautrix_androidsms_appservice_token: 'secret token from bridge'
matrix_mautrix_androidsms_homeserver_token: 'secret token from bridge'
matrix_mautrix_imessage_appservice_token: 'secret token from bridge'
matrix_mautrix_imessage_homeserver_token: 'secret token from bridge'
matrix_mautrix_wsproxy_syncproxy_shared_secret: 'secret token from bridge'
```
Note that the tokens must match what is compiled into the [mautrix-imessage](https://github.com/mautrix/imessage) bridge running on your Mac or Android device.
### Adjusting the wsproxy URL
By default, this playbook installs wsproxy on the `wsproxy.` subdomain (`wsproxy.example.com`) and requires you to [adjust your DNS records](#adjusting-dns-records).
By tweaking the `matrix_mautrix_wsproxy_hostname` variable, you can easily make the service available at a **different hostname** than the default one.
Example additional configuration for your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file:
```yaml
# Change the default hostname
matrix_mautrix_wsproxy_hostname: ws.example.com
```
## Adjusting DNS records
Once you've decided on the domain, **you may need to adjust your DNS** records to point the wsproxy domain to the Matrix server.
By default, you will need to create a CNAME record for `wsproxy`. See [Configuring DNS](configuring-dns.md) for details about DNS changes.
## Installing
After configuring the playbook and potentially [adjusting your DNS records](#adjusting-dns-records), run the playbook with [playbook tags](playbook-tags.md) as below:
<!-- NOTE: let this conservative command run (instead of install-all) to make it clear that failure of the command means something is clearly broken. -->
```sh
ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=setup-all,ensure-matrix-users-created,start
```
**Notes**:
- The `ensure-matrix-users-created` playbook tag makes the playbook automatically create the bot's user account.
- The shortcut commands with `just` program are also available: `just install-all` or `just setup-all`
`just install-all` is useful for maintaining your setup quickly when its components remain unchanged. If you adjust your `vars.yml` to remove other components, you'd need to run `just setup-all`, or these components will still remain installed. For more information about `just` shortcuts, take a look at this page: [Running `just` commands](just.md)
## Usage
Follow the [matrix-imessage documenation](https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/go/imessage/index.html) for running `android-sms` and/or `matrix-imessage` on your device(s).
