Consistent lint group table in book and README

Browse source 
The lint table and the restriction group description was improved in #10385,
but only in the README. Apply the same changes to the book.

The [lint list](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html) also
contains "restriction lints", which are for things which are usually not
considered "bad", but may be useful to turn on in specific cases. These should
be used very selectively, if at all.
The `restriction` category should, *emphatically*, not be enabled as a whole. The contained
lints may lint against perfectly reasonable code, may not have an alternative suggestion,
and may contradict any other lints (including other categories). Lints should be considered
on a case-by-case basis before enabling.
[^restrict]: Some use cases for `restriction` lints include:
- Strict coding styles (e.g. [`clippy::else_if_without_else`]).
- Additional restrictions on CI (e.g. [`clippy::todo`]).
- Preventing panicking in certain functions (e.g. [`clippy::unwrap_used`]).
- Running a lint only on a subset of code (e.g. `#[forbid(clippy::float_arithmetic)]` on a module).
