Avoid using username placeholders in backup docs

These are already known (so no need to hide them) and are fairly static
(so variables are more of a hindrance) so it's better to use the actual
usernames in the documentation. Also, simplify the first example given.

We use two different borg backup hosts: A primary one and an offsite one.
The URL format for the primary one is
ssh://<hetzner_storagebox_username>@u236610.your-storagebox.de:23/~/backup/<hostname>/repo
ssh://u236610@u236610.your-storagebox.de:23/~/backup/<hostname>/repo
while for the offsite one it's
ssh://<rsync_net_username>@zh1905.rsync.net:22/~/backup/<hostname>
ssh://zh1905@zh1905.rsync.net:22/~/backup/<hostname>
In the examples below, we'll just abbreviate the full address as `<backup_address>`.
If you want to use one of the examples below, you'll have to fill in the
placeholder with your desired full address to the backup repository. For instance,
misc/borg.sh list <backup_address>::20191127-084357
misc/borg.sh list <backup_address>
becomes
misc/borg.sh ssh://<hetzner_storagebox_username>@u236610.your-storagebox.de:23/~/backup/homedir.archlinux.org/repo::20191127-084357
misc/borg.sh list ssh://u236610@u236610.your-storagebox.de:23/~/backup/homedir.archlinux.org/repo
A convenience wrapper script is available at `misc/borg.sh` which makes sure you
use the correct keyfile for the given server.
