docs/manual: Modify GitHub FOO_SITE explanation



GitHub has changed its layout, there is no longer any green nor grey
button, it's a link with a tiny icon that indicates if it's uploaded by
the maintainer or not.
In order to not confuse anyone, adding an image should make it clear.

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+, 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
  function.

- If it looks like the image above then it was uploaded by the
  maintainer and you should use that link (in that example:
  'mongrel2-v1.9.2.tar.bz2') to specify +FOO_SITE+, and not use the
  'github' helper.

- On the other hand, if there's is *only* the "Source code" link, then
  it's an automatically generated tarball and you should use the
  'github' helper function.
