[avahi] Better documentation

Just a suggestion: 

Avahi needs better general overview documentation. 

The man pages are great if you already know how the system works in general, but you need to be reminded of how to use an option, or if you want to know the details of a particular tool for which you already understand the purpose. But there is an initial learning curve to Zeroconf that you cannot overcome using only the man pages.

Someone needs to write a user's manual - a wiki site would be great also - it would allow individuals to contribute to a growing pool of user experience documentation.

Thanks for the great project!
John
