Improve some documentation about the bootstrap superuser.

Browse Source 
This commit adds some notes about the inability to remove superuser
privileges from the bootstrap superuser.  This has been blocked
since commit e530be2c5c, but it wasn't intended be a supported
feature before that, either.

In passing, change "bootstrap user" to "bootstrap superuser" in a
couple places.
