Update documentation on updating Qubes OS

- Warn against using direct commands (in part due to
  QubesOS/qubes-issues#6275).
- Remove duplicate content from dom0 and domU pages. Link to main update
  page instead.
- Add information on command-line equivalents to the Qubes Update tool,
  since many Qubes users prefer to run updates via the command-line.

## Updating software in TemplateVMs
The recommended way to update your TemplateVMs is to use the **Qubes Update** tool.
By default, the icon for this tool will appear in your Notification Area when updates are available.
Simply click on it and follow the guided steps.
If you wish to open this tool directly, you can find it in the System Tools area of the Applications menu.
You can also update TemplateVMs individually.
In the Qube Manager, select the desired TemplateVM, then click **Update qube**.
Advanced users can execute the standard update command for that operating system from the command line, e.g. `dnf update` in Fedora and `apt-get update` in Debian.
See [Updating Qubes OS](/doc/updating-qubes-os/).
