Anthony Fok b0181e278b Some more random copyediting of Hugo docs
- Change "livereload" and "live reload" to "LiveReload";
 - Add a `$ ` prompt before example command lines
   (not exhaustive, work in progress);
 - Remove unnecessary whitespace from partials;
 - Revise the blackfriday options table in overview/configuration.md
   to make it narrower.
 - Manually set the language for highlight.js where appropriate
 - Rename "404" to "Custom 404 page", and remove incorrect reference
   to "homepage"
 - Credit the author of tutorials/github_pages_blog.md
   (Similar notes are necessary for other contributed pages where
    "I" am not spf13 to avoid reader confusion.)
 - Add CSS for `kbd` and `table` etc. to css/style.css;
 - etc.

When using Hugo with [GitHub Pages](http://pages.github.com/), you can provide
your own template for a [custom 404 error page](https://help.github.com/articles/custom-404-pages/) by creating a 404.html file in the root.
404 pages are of the type "node" and have all the [node
variables](/layout/variables/) available to use in the templates.
In addition to the standard node variables, the 404 page has access to
all site content accessible from `.Data.Pages`.

## 404.html
This is a basic example of a 404.html template:
{{ partial "header.html" . }}
{{ partial "subheader.html" . }}
<section id="main">
<div>
<h1 id="title">{{ .Title }}</h1>
</div>
</section>
{{ partial "footer.html" }}
