Useful for people who don't have a full TeX install. Added it at the start of the "Installing TikZ" section.

Also, corrected two-or-so typos.

Thank for the submission---I will try to port it ofer to the vignette refactor branch which is where a lot of vignette editing is taking place.

As a side note, if you use a minimal TeX Live install, run tlmgr install texliveonfly. This will install a Python script called texliveonfly that can compile a document and do automatic installation of missing packages and fonts similar to the built-in functionality of the MiKTeX compilers.

Ooh, that's a lovely tip. Never mind this pull request --- I'll open a new one to the proper branch.
