duan_jandClaude Fable 5 c3c38856b3 Docs overhaul: quickstart, current commands everywhere, credits
Main README: clone/SSH/branching quickstart with full /das paths,
--tmpdir/--distdir as part of the standard build command (do not fill
/var/tmp or $HOME) with cleanup for defaults, tips deduplicated against
module READMEs, old-system references removed, resource links and
tutorial acknowledgements added.

Module READMEs: purge outdated recipes repo-wide — Pmodules/1.1.20 and
2.0.0 plus ./build replaced by modbuild/2.1.3 invocations; the cctbx
unbound-variable fix moved from the main README into phenix and DIALS
READMEs where it belongs.

# DIALS
Step 1: make sure you are in the `unx-mx_adm` group -- no -adm account needed, members can update the modules in `/opt/psi/MX` directly (if you have problems, please let the admins know)
Step 2: load the build tool (modbuild)
```
module use unstable
module load modbuild/2.1.3
```
Step 3: go into DIALS directory, update config.yaml to add newest release version and build module with that release name
```
cd DIALS
vi files/config.yaml
modbuild build 3.25.0
```
Step 4: confirm that the module loads as expected
PS:
Unsupported dtype issue is resolved by changing modules/dxtbx/src/dxtbx/format/FormatNXmx.py
allowing the return of also /entry/data/data to the handle:
https://github.com/dials/dials/issues/3033
If loading the module fails with an `unbound variable` from the sourced
`dials_env.sh` (cctbx-style env script), add `puts stdout "set +x nounset"`
before the `source` line in the modulefile — same fix as phenix.
