Clean up some of the questions in the FAQ. Namely:

o Convert statements ("I'd like to become a Web mirror") into questions
   ("How do I become a Web mirror?").
 o Properly mark up errors with <errorname> instead of <literal>.

And a minor nit:
 o Refer to the X window system as the X window system (instead of "the X
   window").
