docs: drop relative line numbering from the v0.2 gutter

Relative numbering renumbers the whole gutter on every j/k, a tall partial
refresh per cursor move that eats the e-ink ghosting budget for no
proportionate gain. Gutter is now absolute-only; Spike 13 downgrades from a
genuine e-ink risk to a layout decision.
