Dylan Whyte 092378ba92 Change "data store" to "datastore" throughout docs
Before, there were mixed usages of "data store" and
"datastore" throughout the docs.
This improves consistency in the docs by using only
"datastore" throughout.

Dylan Whyte 0623674f44 Edit section "Network Management"
Following changes made:
    * Remove empty column "method6" from network list output,
      so table fits in console code-block
    * Walkthrough bond, rather than a bridge as it may be a more
      common setup case

Aaron Lauterer 4f3db187cf Docu: first proof reading
This is a first proof reading of the currently existing documentation.

fixes (hopefully all):
* spelling
* grammar

Tries to increase readabilty and ease of understanding by simplifying
and restructing some sentences and paragraphs. Filler words which add
to the cognitive load but don't add anything are removed
(most notably `also`).
