b8bc67cef3 cvs-migration documentation update
Here's some changes to the cvs-migration.txt.  As usual, in my attempt
to make things clearer someone may have found I've made them less so, or
I may have just gotten something wrong; so any review is welcomed.

I can break up this sort of thing into smaller steps if preferred, the
monolothic patch is just a bit simpler for me for this sort of
thing.

I moved the material describing shared repository management from
core-tutorial.txt to cvs-migration.txt, where it seems more appropriate,
and combined two sections to eliminate some redundancy.

I also revised the earlier sections of cvs-migration.txt, mainly trying
to make it more concise.

I've left the last section of cvs-migration.txt (on CVS annotate
alternatives) alone for now.

76b927f19f Recommend to remove unused origin in a shared repository.
It is a common mistake to leave an unsed `origin` branch behind
if a shared public repository was created by first cloning from
somewhere else.  Subsequent `git push` into it with the default
"push all the matching ref" would push the `origin` branch from
the developer repository uselessly.

927a503cd0 New tutorial
The current Documentation/tutorial.txt concentrates on the lower-level
git interfaces.  So it's useful to people developing alternative
porcelains, to advanced users, etc., but not so much to beginning users.

I think it makes sense for the main tutorial to address those
beginnning users, so with this patch I'm proposing that we move
Documentation/tutorial.txt to Documentation/core-tutorial.txt and
replace it by a new tutorial.
