In this patch I rewrote the explanations in both README.md and HACKING.md about Scylla's dependencies, and about dbuild. README.md used to mention only dbuild. It now explains better (I think) why dbuild is needed in the first place, and that the alternative is explained in HACKING.md. HACKING.md used to explain *only* install-dependencies.sh - and now explains why it is needed, what install-dependencies.sh and that it ONLY works on very recent distributions (e.g., Fedora older than 32 are not supported), and now also mentions the alternative - dbuild. Mentions of incorrect requirements (like "gcc > 8.1") were fixed or dropped. Mention of the archaic 'scripts/scylla_current_repo' script, which we used to need to install additional packages on non-Fedora systems, was dropped. The script itself is also removed.
