VAM is still unclear about basic stuffs #43

Basically people cannot find how to add custom repos to VAM.

<spiiph> The g:vim_addon_manager variable is not defined before vim-addon-manager is loaded, and I found no non-hackish way to force it to load.
<spiiph> Anyway, I found that the documentation didn't make it clear enough how I should go about to add my own sources list.

The doc only says:

As alternative you can specify them in your .vimrc like what that plugin is doing: Add your own dicts to: >
g:vim_addon_manager['plugin_sources']['your-plugin-name'] = { ... }
<
In your .vimrc or somewhere else (see |vim-addon-manager-plugin_sources|).

But doesn't show that you first have to let g:vim_addon_manager = {} | let g:vim_addon_manager['plugin_sources'] = {} before being able to add to it.

<Silex> but maybe we'd make it possible to simply specify git urls as the plugin name
<spiiph> Or just add a function to add to the s:plugin_sources
<Silex> good idea
