docs: improve 'dist-hook' documentation

* doc/automake.texi (The dist Hook): Explicitly document the fact
that the dist-hook should account for the case where the source
tree is read-only, mostly for the benefit of distcheck.  Since
we are at it, do some minor unrelated rewordings, and remove
obsolescent advice.  Motivated by the discussion on automake
bug#10878.
* tests/disthook.test: New test.
* tests/disthook-perms.test: Delete as obsolete.
* tests/list-of-tests.mk: Adjust.
