[one-users] 4.4 Installation instructions are incorrect

Hi,

Nikolay is right, 4.6 is the last stable (and production ready) release,
and the one you should be installing.

However it's somewhat confusing that the 4.4 docs state that 4.6 is a devel
version, so apologies for that, we've already fixed it.

In any case http://docs.opennebula.org will always redirect to the last
stable.

regards,
Jaime
