document more internals, based on mailing list discussion
...
this should address #27 , #28 and #29 at least at a basic level
it is mostly based on the mailing list discussion mentionned in #27 ,
with some reformatting and merging of different posts.

document key files in a new Internals page
...
this is still incomplete as it only describes key files, but doesn't
clearly say how chunks are encrypted or decrypted.
this address parts of #29 but eventually that document should also
cover #27 , #28 and maybe #45
