changes after code review, refs #26951. Since all README files were merged into mirrorManual.txt in 2016, to avoid further confusion, I am removing them now. I manually merged all changes made since then (just 3-4 changes) into mirrorManual.txt now. mirrorManual.txt is automatically converted to https://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/mirrorManual.html by the makefile in mirrorDocs. This makes sure that we have installation instructions that can be read with vi or less and at the same time we have a nice html file that is easy to read, looks like official documentation and is indexed by Google well. The big no.1 advantage of mirrorManual.txt is that the sections have an order in increasing complexity and the user knows where to start. The old README files had no order at all and the names were misleading (e.g. quickstart was not about a quickstart)

-udcCache means URL-Data-Cache
-
-BBI files use the udcCache.
-BBI means Big Binary Indexed and includes
-file types such as BigBed (.bb) and BigWig (.bw).
-
-UCSC BAM file support may also use the udcCache
-
-The udcCache allows tracks that are either installed tracks
-or custom tracks of the above mentioned types to cache data 
-that they have already fetched via URL.  This allows data to 
-reside elsewhere and only download the parts
-needed on demand.  The datablocks are usually
-compressed and have an efficient random access
-index. They are accessed from a remote location
-via URLs such as HTTP, HTTPS, FTP.
-
-By default, udcCache stores files in /tmp/udcCache
-
-Howver, you may include the following in your hg.conf
-and then let your regular trash cleaning scripts
-clean out the old udcCache automatically as well:
-
-# directory for temporary bbi file caching
-udc.cacheDir=../trash/udcCache
-
-Notice that this path is relative to your 
-cgi executable directory which is the 
-current directory when the cgi starts up.
-On some systems this directory is called cgi-bin/.
