G. Branden Robinson 49295a7b02 manual: improve discussion of Recv and Wait 
...and other tweaks.

* Clarify the synonymy of Receive and Wait on non-MCS systems.

* Note that Receive takes a reply object on MCS systems, and not on
non-MCS systems.  Also note redundancy of Wait on non-MCS systems.

* Use the full English word "Receive" when the discussion is at the
conceptual level.  It still gets abbreviated in C context, where it also
receives the "seL4_" prefix.

* Try a little harder to explain what's the same and what's different
about a non-MCS "reply capability" and an MCS capability to a reply
object.

* Explain what MCS stands for at the beginning of the chapter.  In the
manual's current organisation, this precedes by a few paragraphs the
term's first occurrence.

* Recast language about things being "on the MCS kernel" in favour of
describing "MCS" and "non-MCS" _configurations_ of the kernel.  (We do
not refer to the "master" kernel in the manual--thankfully.)

* Correct doubled word "to to".

* Italicise "reply capability" to better distinguish it from the
(already italicised) "reply object".

* Add a TODO comment about hyphenation grief.
