Reword the download.html page, removing mentions of deprecated LiveCD (#138)
ReactOS commit reactos/reactos@b2e33f2 removed the separate livecd artifact, merging it with the bootcd. Rename also "bootcd" to "Boot Media", since it's more generic (e.g. the ISO can be flashed onto an USB thumb drive). The text of the download.html is reworded to explain what the "Boot Media" does.

<h2>How to choose?</h2>
22-
<p>If you wish to install ReactOS on your machine, then Boot CD is the right option for you. Boot CD will direct you to a setup environment, please follow the instructions given on the screen. Live CD is useful if you don't plan to keep ReactOS on your computer for a longer period of time. It allows you to explore ReactOS in a temporary environment that will be reset in a restart. <span class="text-danger font-weight-bold">Please note, that ReactOS is still in alpha and gives no guarantee of stability, safety of your files or working at all.</span></p>

<h2>What does the Boot Media offer?</h2>
21+
<p>The ReactOS Boot Media offers you the possibility of either installing ReactOS on your machine, or alternatively, trying ReactOS without the need for installation.
22+
Once you start the Boot Media, it presents a menu allowing you to select what you want to do: either running the Setup environment (in text mode), or the Live environment for testing.
23+
Select the Setup environment if you wish to install ReactOS on your machine. You will be directed to the setup program, please follow the instructions given on the screen.
24+
On the other hand, the Live environment is useful if you don't plan to install or keep ReactOS on your computer for a longer period of time. It allows you to explore ReactOS in a temporary environment that will be reset at restart. <span class="text-danger font-weight-bold">Please note, that ReactOS is still in alpha and gives no guarantee of stability, safety of your files or working at all.</span></p>
