  1. web: fix problems with download page on project sites

    The Linux installers on the BOINC web site (.sh files)
    have out-of-date binaries, and are not real installers.
    We shouldn't direct users to them.
    But projects and AMs that use auto-attach were directing
    Linux users to these installers.
    
    This change fixes that.
    Linux users are not shown a download button, but are instead directed to
    https://boinc.berkeley.edu/wiki/Installing_on_Linux
    which lists various options for installing BOINC on Linux
    (starting with package managers).
    
    Also: the download page (download_software.php) is also used
    by account managers (Science United).
    In this case, it should show instructions for
    adding an account manager, not attaching to a project.
    
    Note: there's an analogous update to download.php on the BOINC web site:
    if the machine is Linux,
    show a link to the Linux instructions rather than a download button.
