Update readme. Add enable plugin.

- Use enable script instead of plugins.enable which is broken.

  plugins.enable is also no longer needed after plugins.install.

- Recommend using ssb-npm command instead of ssb-npm-registry.

  Using ssb-npm command should be a little simpler and more obvious,
  since when you don't have the prerequisite you will get "command not
  found" which implies you need to install something, rather than
  the mysterious "connect ECONNREFUSED 127.0.0.1:8043"

- Remove blobs.max setting. Recent ssb-npm hard-codes workarounds for
  sodium-native which is (was) the only oversized blob.

- Don't need to say restart ssb-server; the commands will do that.

- Explain installation as standalone process vs. as ssb-server plugin.

- scuttlebot -> ssb-server
