general: Reformat documentation with better formatting and wording

General purpose reformating and rewording in (a few places). This should
also make markdown linting happier.

Prefer back-ticks wherever useful and use `console` for code blocks to
be executed on terminal.

Also, update references links wherever possible (including update from
'http://' to 'https://').
