[IMP] developer/cli: mention the different ways of calling the CLI

All examples on the page suggest calling the CLI with "odoo-bin" while
it is recommended to call it with "odoo" when Odoo was installed from a
distribution package. It also failed to mention the location of
"odoo-bin" relative to the source files.

The chance is also taken to rename the somewhat unclear page title to
something more clear and generic.

CLI: odoo-bin
=============
============================
Command-line interface (CLI)
============================
The CLI :dfn:`command-line interface` offers several functionalities related to Odoo. You can use it
to :ref:`run the server <reference/cmdline/server>`, :ref:`launch Odoo as a Python console
environment <reference/cmdline/shell>`, :ref:`scaffold an Odoo module <reference/cmdline/scaffold>`,
or :ref:`count the number of lines of code <reference/cmdline/cloc>`.
.. important::
The command to use to call the CLI depends on how you installed Odoo. In the examples below, we
assume that you are :ref:`running Odoo from source <setup/install/source>` with the
:file:`odoo-bin` file. If you installed Odoo :ref:`from a distribution package
<setup/install/packaged>` or :ref:`with Docker <setup/install/docker>`, you must adapt the
command.
.. tabs::
.. tab:: Run Odoo from source
#. Navigate to the root of the directory where you downloaded the source files of Odoo
Community.
#. Run all CLI commands with :command:`./odoo-bin`
.. tab:: Odoo was installed from a distribution package
When Odoo was installed, an executable named `odoo` was added to your user's PATH. Replace
all occurrences of :command:`odoo-bin` with :command:`odoo` in the examples below.
.. tab:: Odoo was installed with Docker
Please refer to the `documentation of the official Docker image of Odoo
<https://hub.docker.com/_/odoo/>`_.
