Update FAQ about revocation certificates?

[Daniel Kahn Gillmor]

fwiw, i agree with Damien that the existing text in the FAQ about
generating a revocation certificate should be removed.

I think that there should be some text like "where can i find my key's
revocation certificate?" which could be added to the FAQ.

However, situations like these:

Sound like corner cases to me, and they will clutter the FAQ.  The FAQ
is not designed to answer all possible situations (and certainly not
general file system management questions, etc).  It will be better
(clearer, simpler) if it is targeted on the truly frequently-asked
questions.  For the corner cases, there is the man page, and there is
DETAILS.gz, and there is the mailing list, and there is the source.

I salute Damien's effort to get the FAQ into a more maintainable and
accessible state.
