Alvar Penning 36d892e840 Document root user usage in installation
The installation documentation currently implies that all commands are
being prompted by the root user or an user with root-like privileges.
This is now explicitly stated and, additionally, another if-guard was
added to not include the "Add Icinga Package Repository" section for
Windows, as it does not fit there.

Closes #9959.

About

Icinga is a monitoring system which checks the availability of your network resources, notifies users of outages, and generates performance data for reporting.

Scalable and extensible, Icinga can monitor large, complex environments across multiple locations.

Icinga 2 is the monitoring server and requires Icinga Web 2 on top in your Icinga Stack. The configuration can be easily managed with either the Icinga Director, config management tools or plain text within the Icinga DSL.
