40811c8eaa INSTALL: Update patch file links.
The ftp.idsoftware.com server died several months back. Some context:
<https://www.doomworld.com/forum/topic/96999-rip-ftpidsoftwarecom/>

Instead, point at the mirrors found in the idgames repository, using
the gamers.org version since this is the canonical copy everything else
mirrors from. Unfortunately it's not possible to point at the Doomworld
idgames interface since the patches don't appear in the database there.

f515c88a96 install.template: move definitions to Makefile
Define and pass LONG_EXE_NAME and LONG_GAME_NAME within the
controlling Makefile when generating INSTALL.*, instead of
deriving their values within the template depending on whether
DOOM/HERETIC/HEXEN/STRIFE are defined.

This means we can incorporate the values from @PROGRAM_PREFIX@
and @PACKAGE_SHORTNAME@, instead of hardcoding chocolate- and
Chocolate, respectively.

of this format.

29a06c4e4d INSTALL: Add comment about using FreeDM.
Now that this is usable it's good to include this in the setup
instructions.

826d2a09fa Update Doomworld URLs.
Doomworld is now available over https: so there's no reason to link
to unencrypted http: URLs (which are just redirect anyway). Also the
idgames interface URLs have changed.

a80aa343a5 Simplify INSTALL.template music notes.
Now that there is more extensive documentation in README.Music, remove
some of the details from the INSTALL files and just include a
reference to it.
