Add docs for using lighttpd as the webserver.

lighttpd could support rules like this, to add efficiency:

    # Aggressively cache all static files
    $HTTP["url"] =~ "\.(jpg|gif|png|css|js|htc)" {
        expire.url = ( "" => "access 1 years" )
    }

    # Compress files for faster transfer
    compress.filetype = (
        "text/plain",
        "text/html",
        "text/javascript",
        "text/css",
        "text/xml"
    )

    compress.cache-dir = <would need to set to something>?

I don't know if that is necessary or useful.  Probably not a good idea
at this point, where the code is changing so rapidly: a 1 year cache
of javascript code could cause trouble.  And i think the default
lighttpd.conf already compresses text/html, text/plain, text/css, and
application/x-javascript by default, so we're ok there (could add
text/javascript and text/xml, I guess).
