b63886daf3 Replace most refs to Microsoft with Windows
Referring to software as "Microsoft software" implies it's written
by Microsoft, which I don't think the Mares Dive Organizer is.
Microsoft still needs to stay for SQL Compact Edition which is theirs
but I think "Windows software" is the better description for the rest.
For consistency I think this works for refering to the OS too, as we
use Mac, not Apple, and Linux not Canonical.

48b8cbadf7 User manual: some changes regarding the companion app
Subsurface companion is, basically, the same from last Subsurface release,
it's only been added with the map feature which is depicted here.

Distance between positions takes precedence over time between them, so you
can have positions faster than one each period set in the "Min Duration"
setting.  Actually this setting seems useless as you won't have a fix each
period if distance is under "Min distance".

Lesser changes in manual involving Background Service, the dificulty on
matching times and little personal recomendations.
