doc/autoconf-archive.texi: renamed "using the archive" section to "downloads"
As of now, the "Using the Archive" section really tells how to download the archive. This is an important subject, so it felt wise to call the section appropriately to ensure that our users find that information.

+The macros distributed by the Archive are maintained in a public Git repository
+at @indicateurl{git://git.sv.gnu.org/autoconf-archive.git}. That repository can
+be cloned anonymously, which is probably the most convenient way to access the
+Archive. Gitweb offers an
+@uref{http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=autoconf-archive.git;a=rss,RSS
+feed} for subscription that informs about changes to the repository. The same
+information is available via e-mail, too, on the
+@uref{http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf-archive-commits,commits
+mailing list}.
+
+For the benefit of everyone who doesn't use Git, traditional release archives
+can be downloaded from
+@uref{http://download.savannah.nongnu.org/releases/autoconf-archive/}. New
+release are always announced on the low-traffic
+@uref{http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf-archive-announce,announcements
+mailing list}.
