Indrajit Raychaudhuri 1ff9421f7b general: Update documentation better qualifying runcom paths
Zsh and Prezto files don't always reside in `~/`. Instead, they have
a more spec compliant location (`${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/`). Make them
unambiguous in the documentation. Likewise, for `$GNUPGHOME`.

Further, add instruction for optionally setting up Prezto in
`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME`.

While at this, also add clarification on relative ordering of some of
the modules, apply more formatting tweaks and doc improvements.

# GNU Utility
Provides for the interactive use of GNU utilities on BSD systems.
Installing GNU utilities on non-GNU systems in `$PATH` without a prefix, i.e.,
`ls` instead of `gls`, is not recommended since scripts that target other
utilities will be broken.
This module wraps GNU utilities in functions without a prefix for interactive
use.
This module must be loaded _before_ the [_`utility`_][1] module so that GNU
utilities enabled in this module are available for configuration in _`utility`_
module.
## Settings
### Prefix
To use a different prefix, add the following to
_`${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zpreztorc`_, and replace `'g'` with the desired prefix.
```sh
zstyle ':prezto:module:gnu-utility' prefix 'g'
```
