Rewrite some of the paragraph to make them (hopefully) clearer, reorder the feature list in a 2-level structure for more legibility, reference the IRC channel, and other minor wording changes.

## Status
|
|
|
|
chasquid is in beta.
|
|
|
|
It's functional and has had some production exposure, but some things may
|
|
still change in backwards-incompatible way, including the configuration format.
|
|
It should be rare and will be avoided if possible.
|
|
|
