0865b1ccff cli: show placeholder text for empty commit message
It can be confusing that some commits (typically the working copy)
don't have a description. Let's show a placeholder text in such cases.

I chose the format to match the "(no email configured)" message we
already have.

71c789f50b cli: make log show only local commits by default
The default log output of showing all commits is not very useful when
contributing to an existing repo. Let's have it default to showing
commits not on any remote branch instead. I think that's the best we
can do since we don't have a configurable main branch yet, and we
don't even have per-repo configuration..

Closes #250.

96849da332 docs: prefer ~/.jjconfig.toml on all platforms
It's much easier to tell users on all platforms to put their config in
`~/.jjconfig.toml` than in a path that varies across the platforms, so
let's do that. It also seems like a less controversial location for
the file.

Closes ##233.

095fb9fef4 config: drop support for ~/.jjconfig
I'm a little hesitant to do this because most tools I'm familiar with
have the config file directly in `~/`. It's also easier to describe
where to put the file if it doesn't vary across platforms. But we're
still early in the project, so let's try it and see if we get any
complaints.

2a76572653 docs: add pointer to pre-built binary releases (#73)
Users now have the option of installing from source or directly
installing a binary.

I also corrected some text that effectively said that installing a Nix
flake is not installing from source, but I think it actually does
install from source.

630f8069d0 docs: explain that the there's no reason to use the native backend
A few people in different forums asked if there's any reason to use
the native backend and what the reason for its existance is, so let's
document that.

78dadcc1ba docs: restructure installation instructions to be per platform
The only overlap between the instructions for Linux, Mac, and Windows
is the `cargo install` step, so let's instead split it up so it's easy
for the user to skip to the relevant part, especially as we add more
platform-specific instructions.

I promoted some sections to one level higher sections to try to
clarify that the initial configuration and the command-line completion
applies to all platforms.

e11e373427 docs: describe how to set up completion for each shell
Setting up completion is particularly non-obvious for Zsh, so let's
provide the exact command(s) for each supported shell.

1a0b5b9c9e docs: mention user-specific config path on different platforms
Since #85, we load the user's config from a path under
`dirs::config_dir()`. It's probably not obvious to all users where to
put the file, so let's describe that. (I didn't know where to put the
file on my Mac until I looked at the function's documentation.)

f4cadff6e1 README: description additional installation steps for Mac
I'm not sure which steps are needed and what they depend on (I didn't
need the `pkg-config` bits), so the steps are a little vague for now.
