Full Node Howto: Add Windows 7, Ubuntu Server, and Other Linux
* Added instructions for Windows 7, but only for Bitcoin Core GUI. I added a stub for anyone who wants to write instructions for using the daemon on Windows. * Added instructions for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Server, but only for Bitcoin core daemon. I assume most server users run headless. * Added instructions for Other Linux Distributions, for both GUI and daemon. Hopefully the instructions are general enough to apply to most distributions but specific enough that they actually help readers. * Added a stub for Windows 8.1 as I don't have access to a copy, and all the pay-per-hour Windows VPSes I can find run some version of Windows Server. (I have the same problem with OS X.) * Hid some subsections in the table of contents: I found having subsections named "Bitcoin Core GUI" and "...Daemon" within multiple sections distracting, so I hid them in the TOC. * Added basic PGP verification instructions: I didn't try to explain PGP to newbies, but I did provide instructions useful to people who have used PGP before. These instructions are currently displayed in the Windows 7 and Other Linux Distributions sections (where users download from Bitcoin.org). * Made sure the end of each install section points to the Network Configuration section so users open port 8333. Closes #410
