Description: I was originally browsing through project's FAQ on the [website](https://kernelsu.org/) and noticed a few discrepancies across the text.<br>I edited them out, and once having finished with the FAQ, I looked through other website pages as well. Changes: - updated documentation for the project's website (English version). -- P.S. I actually appreciate the partial documentation on GKI and in-depth Android mechanisms present in it. While there is of course documentation from Google, it is nice to have guidelines from a more practical standpoint.
