[pgsql-www] Revised downloads section on the website

[CC'd to -www]
 
Packagers,
 
I have committed changes to the PostgreSQL website as part of a larger strategy to make things easier for new users. The changes to the website are intended to make it much easier for the newbie to find and install the required components for their OS. I've written up very basic instructions for most of the OSs we package for - I'd appreciate your input in reviewing that text, and letting me know what I should change for your particular packages.
 
We want the text to tell the user:
 
- What to download (do they need multiple packages?)
- How to install it/where to find instructions
 
Bear in mind though, this is not intended to be the formal documentation for your package, rather it's just a quickstart guide. We want pages to remain short, and to the point to avoid boring or confusing the user.
 
Your input would be appreciated - thanks in advance!
