DERBY-1959: Derby Developers Guide errors and ambiguities

This patch modifies the "After Installing" and "Installation Directory"
pages in the developer's guide to fix several errors and ambiguities:
 - the pages refer to "install.html", which does not exist
 - the pages refer to an "installation program", which does not exist
 - the pages describe "the Derby development environment" which can be
   confusing because it suggests that there is an IDE distributed as part
   of Derby, and there is not
 - the pages refer to "release_notes.html", which is now RELEASE-NOTES.html
 - the pages refer to a "doc" directory, which is actually named "docs".
