Docfx: Update to dotnet RTM (was RC2)

Title

Update to dotnet RC2

Functional impact

To stay current, this project should be updated to the dotnet RC2 bits. I noticed that the Getting Started page on the ASP.NET site that is linked to from the README now only refers to the RC2 bits for dotnet with the new CLI, rather than the dnvm-based RC1 bits.

Or better yet now, the preview 2 dotnet CLI (.NET Core RTM) bits...

Any updates on this? The requirement to install DNVM feels worrying.
Presumably this is because dotnet cli doesn't have the equivalent of "installing a tool"?

We do have an experimental build of CLI version (in cli branch), the main reason we haven't retire DNX is as @jskeet said, there is no equivalent of "dnx command" in CLI right now. We'll keep an eye on the status of CLI and keep you updated once we decide a date to upgrade.

Can you give more details on what functionality it is that you're missing from dnx in the RTM bits?

@stuartleeks Such like dnu commands install docfx

Is it possible to build docfx.exe and its DLL's from source without DNVM?
I was using the 2.3 release, but I need to build dev to address my issue #604.
