Move instructions to start GNOME from a terminal

Those instructions are on the GDM page. They fit better on the
gnome-session page.

    291     <para>
    292       It is possible to start <application>GNOME</application> from the command
    293       line, rather than using GDM. However, you must still have GDM installed
    294       for some portions of the desktop to work. One reason to start from the
    295       command line is if you want Wayland support on a system that has the
    296       proprietary NVIDIA driver installed, since GDM will not show the Wayland
    297       session type on such a system.
