docs/esp8266/tutorial/intro: Reword section on flash size requirement.
Give a clearly dissuading tone on end users trying 512KB version - it has to many end-usery features lacking.

@ -20,9 +20,12 @@ characteristic of a board is how much flash it has, how the GPIO pins are

connected to the outside world, and whether it includes a built-in USB-serial

convertor to make the UART available to your PC.

The minimum requirement for flash size is 512k. A board with this amount of
|

flash will not have room for a filesystem, but otherwise is fully functional.

If your board has 1Mbyte or more of flash then it will support a filesystem.

The minimum requirement for flash size is 1Mbyte. There is also a special
|

build for boards with 512KB, but it is highly limited comparing to the
|
||||
normal build: there is no support for filesystem, and thus features which
|
||||
depend on it won't work (WebREPL, upip, etc.). As such, 512KB build will
|

be more interesting for users who build from source and fine-tune parameters
|

for their particular application.

Names of pins will be given in this tutorial using the chip names (eg GPIO0)
|

and it should be straightforward to find which pin this corresponds to on your
