Subject: [PATCH] docs: add emacs26 removal for ubuntu to install guide

In some cases, ubuntu may contain a preinstalled version of Emacs26,
which cannot be simply removed with "sudo apt remove emacs", and needs
additional "sudo apt autoremove" to properly uninstall emacs26. Only
this will result with the command "emacs" opening other version than
emacs26.
