There's no need to use certbot-auto here. (#6970)

I came across this when looking through our docs for other references to certbot-auto.

For the README changes, I deleted a bunch of duplicated and outdated instructions in favor of pointing people to https://certbot.eff.org.

The easiest way to install Certbot is by visiting `certbot.eff.org`_, where you can

<https://certbot.eff.org/docs/install.html>`_.
For full command line help, you can type::
./certbot-auto --help all
You can also tell it exactly what you want it to do from the command line.
For instance, if you want to obtain a cert for ``example.com``,
``www.example.com``, and ``other.example.net``, using the Apache plugin to both
obtain and install the certs, you could do this::
./certbot-auto --apache -d example.com -d www.example.com -d other.example.net
(The first time you run the command, it will make an account, and ask for an
email and agreement to the Let's Encrypt Subscriber Agreement; you can
automate those with ``--email`` and ``--agree-tos``)
If you want to use a webserver that doesn't have full plugin support yet, you
can still use "standalone" or "webroot" plugins to obtain a certificate::
./certbot-auto certonly --standalone --email admin@example.com -d example.com -d www.example.com -d other.example.net
