    Book: added necssary ImageMagick policy edit to bootstraping.
    
    Until now, there was no description for the necessary edit to the
    ImageMagick policy for the bootstraping process.
    
    With this commit, I have explained the necessary line to add to the
    necessary file, and in the text I have added the link for more information.

 ImageMagick is a wonderful and robust program for image manipulation on the 
command-line.
 @file{bootstrap} uses it to convert the book images into the formats necessary 
for the various book formats.
 
+Since ImageMagick version 7, it is necessary to edit the policy file 
(@file{/etc/ImageMagick-7/policy.xml}) to have the following line (it maybe 
present, but commented, in this case un-comment it):
+
+@example
+<policy domain="coder" rights="read|write" pattern="@{PS,PDF,XPS@}" />
+@end example
+
+If the following line is present, it is also necessary to comment/remove it.
+
+@example
+<policy domain="delegate" rights="none" pattern="gs" />
+@end example
