Thomas Waldmann d535c6a25d remove hardlinked symlinks warning, update docs, fixes #3175

Alexander Meshcheryakov d3533de5f7 Simplified rate limiting wrapper in FAQ
Exporting $RATE as environment variable is not need in this case.

Antoine Beaupré 7f9a147e46 move fork differences to FAQ
it seems now that the fork is more of historical value than a current
thing. people interested in the differences between borg and attic can
look in the FAQ, but I do not see why this is present in the README.

a new section regarding compatibility is created to keep that warning
in place.
