[Vim/YCM] Update instructions for setting up YouCompleteMe
Previous recommended workflow was to set g:ycm_global_ycm_extra_conf
variable. Doing so would override any site specific gloabl YCM
configuration. Instead the new instructions suggest a workflow for
setting up Chromium's YCM configuration file so that it only applies to
files within the Chromium checkout.
