"SunOS" should be "SmartOS" in downloads page. #1987

"SunOS" is misleading, because it could be taken to mean "any OS derived from SunOS", which includes Oracle Solaris. Node.js's binaries (naturally) don't run on Solaris 11.3+, nor will they compile.

Updating that wording could save the next poor fool who lost 2 hours of his life debugging before noticing that only SmartOS is listed in the supported platforms table. :-)
