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://').

Local Module Installation
-------------------------
## Local Module Installation
Perl versions older than 5.14 do not support the local installation of Perl
modules natively. This module allows for local installation of Perl modules on
macOS in *~/Library/Perl/5.12* by altering the environment.

## Perlbrew
An alternative to the above is to use [Perlbrew][2], which allows for the
management of multiple, isolated Perl installations in the home directory.

Yet another alternative is [plenv][3]. This is inspired from rbenv and enables
switching between multiple binary installations.
