Links don't work on github

as pointed out in #100 (comment)

We could make all of the links in the book absolute (always point to the guide) or we could leave them relative and just tell people to use the hosted mdbook version, rather than github... My personal leaning is towards the latter because it seems cleaner (easier to move the book later, easier to write, etc.)...

@nikomatsakis @Michael-F-Bryan Any thoughts?

This is always tricky with things like this. Once the guide makes its way into the "real" documentation, we'd want to leave them relative, so that things work offline.

This does make them not work on github, but that's effectively an impossible problem.

I think we can live with this. It seems more important to make contributing to the book easier, so I will close this. But if anyone has further comments, please do share :)
