 Fixed #18115 - added warning about overlaid install.

 Setup.py now warns if it detects that Django is being installed over top
 of a previous installation that was never removed. This should only
 happen when installing with ``python setup.py install``, as pip
 automatically uninstalls before installing a new version and
 easy_install installs as an egg directory.

 Also generally updated the installation doc.
