Work tracking pull request for the TeX part of #80.

This is proving to be quite annoying since the manual is indeed quite out of date and at some points the in-game help, the manual and the actual behaviour are pairwise different. And in the case of #504 I was not even able to guess what the intended behaviour should have been.

Would you be okay with me splitting this up, concentrating on the parts I would like to do and leaving issues for the remaining parts?

Is there someone who will be able to – ideally quickly – answer all the little questions that arise? As I am only familiar with a few select glimpses of the project, that might vastly ease my workload on this issue.

Might be easier to use the github wiki for documentation instead of a tex file?

I'm a big LaTeX fan in general, but it might be much more easy to maintain the GitHub Wiki I guess. Not sure if we'd need a PDF anyways, since no one might want to print that out or something.

The primary reason I started this as a standalone document as opposed to a wiki or something was that in #80 it read as if that was something you wanted to have. Personally, I'm fine with discontinuing the offline-first approach and focus on a wiki (that might afterwards be wrapped in a PDF if someone wants it, I guess).
