[PATCH, doc] Mention renamed stages for profiledbootstrap.

I wanted to try out the stage 2 compiler created during
profiledbootstrap (for some more profiling), and found out its stage
name isn't "2", but "profile".  It helps to know to use
  make stageprofile-start

in that case.

Tested 'make info dvi html'.  OK for trunk?

Thanks,
Ralf
