Documentation getting to texlive-full

Improve quickstart to include texlive-full config

Description

Currently it's hard to find instructions on getting texlive-full running with overleaf-toolkit. Following the manual stops at only a minimal installation.

"Community Edition: Upgrading TexLive" is good, but it's not easy enough to find it.

My opinion is that without installing some packages (such as babel) community edition is pretty much unusable. For me it's as important as TLS config which is in the quickstart.

I'm not sure "upgrading" is something that a new user would look at when trying to fix packages not working.

Perhaps adding a link to "upgrading texlive" at the end of quickstart is a good compromise? And one sentence why someone would want to "upgrade"?

I agree that adding a sentence in the quickstart that points to the upgrade documentation would be a good idea, since most deployments are going to want to do this.

Perhaps in initialise configuration ?

Hi all,

Hope everything is fine. By reading the manual shown in https://github.com/overleaf/toolkit/blob/master/doc/ce-upgrading-texlive.md came up with a step-by-step guide. Maybe we can add it in https://github.com/overleaf/toolkit/blob/master/doc/quick-start-guide.md#initialise-configuration as I dit in the following commit, please see below.

I hope this suits well. Best regards.
