Doc: Rewrite instructions for finding out SD card device path
Rewrite the instructions and move them to a separate qdocinc file. Also move the warning about potential HDD-wipe to this step, as that's when you have to pay attention to it. Change-Id: I812ceca23c26587876c9ea66049b72fcce8561c9 Reviewed-by: Eirik Aavitsland <eirik.aavitsland@digia.com>
