toaster-manual: Updated the "Installation" to have TOASTER_DIR information
In section 3.6 of the manual about setting up a production instance of Toaster, explain that TOASTER_DIR determines the location of the build directory, and that the checksettings command configures the build environment for Toaster. NOTE: I applied some minor fixes to the wording.
