This makes them consistent with the update instructions that are in the
release announcements.

Also adds in the command to update the frontend as well.

actually is it good to recommend shutting down the instance before migrating? i've always ran ecto.migrate in the foreground while my instance was running, and then restarting it only took a couple of seconds
this way adds downtime

and also as far as i'm aware ecto.migrate executes compile if that's not already been done
so really you only need deps.get -> ecto.migrate -> restart

I'm not really too sure. I've done live migrations on FoundKey without issues but I haven't tried with akkoma so far.

it avoids any potential race conditions involving attempting to insert data into a post-migrate database
