Update StableMIR doc to reflect current status

We no longer use git subtree, and we have 2 different crates.

-This crate is regularly synced with its mirror in the rustc repo at `compiler/rustc_smir`.
+This crate is currently developed in-tree together with the compiler.
 
-We use `git subtree` for this to preserve commits and allow the rustc repo to
-edit these crates without having to touch this repo. This keeps the crates compiling
-while allowing us to independently work on them here. The effort of keeping them in
-sync is pushed entirely onto us, without affecting rustc workflows negatively.
-This may change in the future, but changes to policy should only be done via a
-compiler team MCP.
-
-## Instructions for working on this crate locally
-
-Since the crate is the same in the rustc repo and here, the dependencies on rustc_* crates
-will only either work here or there, but never in both places at the same time. Thus we use
-optional dependencies on the rustc_* crates, requiring local development to use
-
-```
-cargo build --no-default-features -Zavoid-dev-deps
-```
-
-in order to compile successfully.
-
-## Instructions for syncing
-
-### Updating this repository
-
-In the rustc repo, execute
-
-```
-git subtree push --prefix=compiler/rustc_smir url_to_your_fork_of_project_stable_mir some_feature_branch
-```
-
-and then open a PR of your `some_feature_branch` against https://github.com/rust-lang/project-stable-mir
-
-### Updating the rustc library
-
-First we need to bump our stack limit, as the rustc repo otherwise quickly hits that:
-
-```
-ulimit -s 60000
-```
-
-#### Maximum function recursion depth (1000) reached
-
-Then we need to disable `dash` as the default shell for sh scripts, as otherwise we run into a
-hard limit of a recursion depth of 1000:
-
-```
-sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash
-```
-
-and then select `No` to disable dash.
-
-
-#### Patching your `git worktree`
-
-The regular git worktree does not scale to repos of the size of the rustc repo.
-So download the `git-subtree.sh` from https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/pull/493/files and run
-
-```
-sudo cp --backup /path/to/patched/git-subtree.sh /usr/lib/git-core/git-subtree
-sudo chmod --reference=/usr/lib/git-core/git-subtree~ /usr/lib/git-core/git-subtree
-sudo chown --reference=/usr/lib/git-core/git-subtree~ /usr/lib/git-core/git-subtree
-```
-
-#### Actually doing a sync
-
-In the rustc repo, execute
-
-```
-git subtree pull --prefix=compiler/rustc_smir https://github.com/rust-lang/project-stable-mir smir
-```
-
-Note: only ever sync to rustc from the project-stable-mir's `smir` branch. Do not sync with your own forks.
-
-Then open a PR against rustc just like a regular PR.
+Our goal is to start publishing `stable_mir` into crates.io.
+Until then, users will use this as any other rustc crate, via extern crate.
 
 ## Stable MIR Design
 
 The stable-mir will follow a similar approach to proc-macro2. It’s
-implementation will eventually be broken down into two main crates:
+implementation is done using two main crates:
 
 - `stable_mir`: Public crate, to be published on crates.io, which will contain
-the stable data structure as well as proxy APIs to make calls to the
-compiler.
-- `rustc_smir`: The compiler crate that will translate from internal MIR to
-SMIR. This crate will also implement APIs that will be invoked by
-stable-mir to query the compiler for more information.
+the stable data structure as well as calls to `rustc_smir` APIs and
+translation between stable and internal constructs.
+- `rustc_smir`: This crate implements the public APIs to the compiler.
+It is responsible for gathering all the information requested, and providing
+the data in its unstable form.
 
-This will help tools to communicate with the rust compiler via stable APIs. Tools will depend on
-`stable_mir` crate, which will invoke the compiler using APIs defined in `rustc_smir`. I.e.:

-For now, the code for these two crates are in separate modules of this crate.
-The modules have the same name for simplicity. We also have a third module,
-`rustc_internal` which will expose APIs and definitions that allow users to
-gather information from internal MIR constructs that haven't been exposed in
-the `stable_mir` module.
