Add sample list of packages (dependencies) required to build XFSTESTS
and add a step to the instructions to mention creating the test
user needed for some of the ACL tests.

 Building Linux:
     - cd into the xfstests directory
+    - install prerequisite packages
+      For example, for Ubuntu:
+        "sudo apt-get install xfslibs-dev uuid-dev libtool e2fsprogs
+         automake gcc libuuid1 libuuidm-ocaml-dev attr libattr1-dev
+         libacl1-dev libaio-dev xfsprogs libgdbm-dev gawk fio dbench"
     - run make
     - run make install
+    - create fsgqa test user ("sudo useradd fsgqa")

 Building IRIX:
     - cd into the xfstests directory
