Replaced "Double Ratchet" by "X3DH" in the manual

The Double Ratchet algorithm has other purposes than simple forward
secrecy, and is quite complicated, and rely on some prior key exchange
protocol to boot.  Pointing to it wasn't good general purpose advice.

X3DH is what we were looking for.  It is simple enough, and addresses
the main issues around key exchange (forward secrecy, replay attacks, and
deniability).
