Update invocation documentation. Remove unnecessary scripts/manifest
Since we can now use the package file, we no longer need the invocation scripts we used before, or the manifest I'd written.

GNU Guile allows you to develop against a live running web server using emacs-geiser. To try this fire up the web server from the `web` directory as
```sh
-cd web
-unset GUIX_PROFILE
-. .guix-shell -- guile -L .. --fresh-auto-compile --listen=1970 -e main ./webserver.scm 8091
+guix shell --container --network --file=guix.scm -- guile -L . --fresh-auto-compile --listen=1970 -e main web/webserver.scm 8091
```
-Note the leading dot. The .guix-shell is defined in `gn-guile/web` and loads required packages using GNU Guix.
-If you are on Debian you may need to unset GUIX_PROFILE first.
+The `--container` option runs the code in an isolated container, and the `--network` option connects that container's networking to the host to allow you to access the running service.
