* [Docs] Update linux install docs, redo venv docs Some of our pre-req installation docs needed updating on Windows - this adds new sections for Fedora Linux and Debian/Raspbian Buster, and also removes some unnecessary pre-requirements from other distributions. These have all been tested on fresh VPSes, installing Red both in venvs and with --user, and they all seem to work. Also, apparently the venv docs were too scary before. These changes try to make it clear that it's easier to use than users may think. This also includes a little note to stop users from accidentally installing Python with pyenv after installing pre-requirements on Ubuntu.

Overview
Red is a fully modular bot – meaning all features and commands can be enabled/disabled to your liking, making it completely customizable. This is also a self-hosted bot – meaning you will need to host and maintain your own instance. You can turn Red into an admin bot, music bot, trivia bot, new best friend or all of these together!
Installation is easy, and you do NOT need to know anything about coding! Aside from installation and updating, every part of the bot can be controlled from within Discord.
The default set of modules includes and is not limited to:
- Moderation features (kick/ban/softban/hackban, mod-log, filter, chat cleanup)
- Trivia (lists are included and can be easily added)
- Music features (YouTube, SoundCloud, local files, playlists, queues)
- Stream alerts (Twitch, Youtube, Mixer, Hitbox, Picarto)
- Bank (slot machine, user credits)
- Custom commands
- Imgur/gif search
- Admin automation (self-role assignment, cross-server announcements, mod-mail reports)
- Customisable command permissions
Additionally, other plugins (cogs) can be easily found and added from our growing community of cog repositories.
