docs/manual: cleanup github helper docs 



Explicitly state that the github helper should not be used when there is
a release tarball.

Properly render the list by separating it from the previous paragraph.

You can see on the release page if it's an uploaded tarball or a git tag:



- If there is a green download button, like

  https://github.com/zedshaw/mongrel2/releases/tag/v1.9.1[mongrel2], then it

  was uploaded by the maintainer and you should use the link of that button to

  specify +FOO_SITE+.

  specify +FOO_SITE+, and not use the 'github' helper.

- If there is grey download button, like

  https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/releases/tag/13.2-Gotham[xbmc], then it's an

  automatically generated tarball and you should use the 'github' helper
