I think this is better than the current unauthenticated workaround, so I
pushed new instructions live. I also pushed some other improvements:

8fa1910 Suggest a safe workaround for installing Vagrant.
57a948c Quote code more consistently.
bf53809 Remove workaround instructions for #6514.
8378e4b Update Vagrant memory usage figures.

I dared doing this because I think the old instructions were downright
confusing in some cases (e.g. the left-over workaround for #6514), and
hard to follow (no code to copy-paste). My changes may still need
improvements, though, so please have a look!

Cheers!
