This commit updates the documentation to cover a bug in how yarn install notes explain how to set your path and how globally installed binaries are added to a system. Hopefully in the future the getting started notes will explain that if you install binaries globally on a system you need to add that global path to your environment path.

What is the context of this PR?
When trying to install the cli for the first time on mac os using the new Facebook backed Yarn packaging system, a non-obvious issue occurs where a binary application is not available in your path despite you following the detailed and correct install notes.
What does this change?
This PR updates the documentation to cover a bug in how yarn install notes explain how to set your path and how globally installed binaries are added to a system. Hopefully in the future the getting started notes will explain that if you install binaries globally on a system you need to add that global path to your environment path.
This should be reviewed in the future to check if required given Yarn's fast development.
