What is the problem I am trying to address?
There have been a few questions in the recent past about when/why to use a
vendor directory instead of (or along with) Athens or another proxy.
How is the fix applied?
I added a section to the FAQ that explains some pros and cons for when to use
vendor and when to use a proxy server like Athens.
Mention the issue number it fixes or add the details of the changes if it doesn't have a specific issue.
Fixes #1338
