Change "netdata" to "Netdata" in all docs (#6621)
* First pass of changing netdata to Netdata * Second pass of netdata -> Netdata * Starting work on netdata with no whitespace after * Pass for netdata with no whitespace at the end * Pass for netdata with no whitespace at the front

### disk names
-netdata will automatically set the name of disks on the dashboard, from the mount point they are mounted, of course only when they are mounted. Changes in mount points are not currently detected (you will have to restart netdata to change the name of the disk). To use disk IDs provided by `/dev/disk/by-id`, the `name disks by id` option should be enabled. The `preferred disk ids` simple pattern allows choosing disk IDs to be used in the first place.

### performance metrics
-By default, Netdata will enable monitoring metrics only when they are not zero. If they are constantly zero they are ignored. Metrics that will start having values, after netdata is started, will be detected and charts will be automatically added to the dashboard (a refresh of the dashboard is needed for them to appear though). Set `yes` for a chart instead of `auto` to enable it permanently. You can also set the `enable zero metrics` option to `yes` in the `[global]` section which enables charts with zero metrics for all internal Netdata plugins.
