[PATCH] Update README

["J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@fieldses.org>]

The README has bit-rotted: redhat and debian packaging scripts are no
longer included, util-linux mount is (in theory) no longer required, and
instructions on building from latest git would be useful.

I'm autotool-clueless and have no clue about the "ltmain.sh" thing
mentioned in the last section; I just followed the bootstrapping
instructions in the commit message for 922d6cfd and found I needed a
copy of ltmain.sh to make it work.
