This guide is specifically about how to properly update V8. I think the language here should be specific about that

Very tiny nit, but when referring to the project, it's Node.js and not Node. (And when referring to the executable, it's node and not Node.)

@thealphanerd Do you have a recommendation as to what exactly the text perhaps should be?

@sarahmeyer Does the text suggested by @thealphanerd seem correct and otherwise effective to you? If so, would you be willing to update this PR to use it or some variation on it?

In the interest of getting this small-but-meaningful change through the process, I updated the text myself and included a few other minor fixes to some surrounding text in the doc.

@sarahmeyer Hope that was OK for me to do!

@thealphanerd, LGTY?
