eba0790a04 Yet some more changes to Companion part of user manual
A last few changes before 4.1.
The first figure in "Using Companion app" needs a third part.
This was inserted. Which, in turn, affected the last figure
in that section. So that was also changed accordingly.

Few tiny changes to text to clean up references to figures.

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.
