[gnugo-devel] tex-info updated

[Arend Bayer]

Here are the changes for the documentation; I also changed the values
of joseki moves which were not up to date with shapes.c. 
Btw, why was the shape bonus for J moves dropped? I saw GNU Go depart
from the proper joseki a couple of times, and the shape bonus might
have prevented this.
