profile-manual: Updates to the LTTng Documentation section.

The LTTng Documentation website has been updated to actually
have extensive documentation now.  Previously, in the profile-manual,
we were stating that documentation did not exist, which was true
at the time of writing.  I updated the section to link to the
main LTTng documentation website and altered some other text in
the section appropriately.

Additionally, I found and corrected a couple spelling errors in
this chapter.

dpcc compiler, an ANSI C compiler which targeted a low-level
assembly language running on an in-kernel interpreter on the
target system. This is exactly analagous to what Sun's DTrace
target system. This is exactly analogous to what Sun's DTrace
did, except that DTrace invented its own language for the purpose.
Systemtap, heavily inspired by DTrace, also created its own
one-off language, but rather than running the product on an

There doesn't seem to be any current documentation covering
LTTng 2.0, but maybe that's because the project is in transition.
The LTTng 2.0 website, however, is here:
<ulink url='http://lttng.org/lttng2.0'>LTTng Project</ulink>
You can find the primary LTTng Documentation on the

site.
The documentation on this site is appropriate for intermediate to
advanced software developers who are working in a Linux environment
and are interested in efficient software tracing.
