docs: use /path/to/repo, fixes #901
/mnt/backup was confusing as people like to mount their backup disk on /mnt/backup, but borg init /mnt/backup does not work if that directory already exists because it is the mountpoint. it would work, if /mnt was the mountpoint, but that is not obvious and also unusual.

Initialize a new backup repository and create a backup archive::
- $ borg init /mnt/backup
- $ borg create /mnt/backup::Saturday1 ~/Documents
+ $ borg init /path/to/repo
+ $ borg create /path/to/repo::Saturday1 ~/Documents
Now doing another backup, just to show off the great deduplication::
- $ borg create -v --stats /mnt/backup::Saturday2 ~/Documents
+ $ borg create -v --stats /path/to/repo::Saturday2 ~/Documents
