LOG: Update all LLVM documentation mentioning runtimes in LLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS

We are moving away from building the runtimes with LLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS,
however the documentation was largely outdated. This commit updates all
the documentation I could find to use LLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIMES instead of
LLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS for building runtimes.

Note that in the near future, libcxx, libcxxabi and libunwind will stop
supporting being built with LLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS altogether. I don't know
what the plans are for other runtimes like libc, openmp and compiler-rt,
so I didn't make any changes to the documentation that would imply
something for those projects.

Once this lands, I will also cherry-pick this on the release/14.x branch
to make sure that LLVM's documentation is up-to-date and reflects what
we intend to support in the future.

+          projects can be specified either in ``LLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS`` or in
+          ``LLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIMES``.
 
           For example, to build LLVM, Clang, libcxx, and libcxxabi, use
-          ``-DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS="clang;libcxx;libcxxabi"``.

+          could render your system unusable. In general, using something like
+          ``/usr`` is not advised, but ``/usr/local`` is fine.
 
         * ``-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=type`` --- Valid options for *type* are Debug,
           Release, RelWithDebInfo, and MinSizeRel. Default is Debug.
