I did more updates to the docs. For the record, I *think* the docs is now
up-to-date with all new changes in the XCF format.
If anyone thinks some stuff are still wrong in the docs, please feel free
to open bug reports (rather than emails which I may miss) explaining the
parts where things are still unclear or not right when compared to actual
XCF files.
