README.md: Clarify 'installation dir' #2

Hi Andrzej, I had some difficulty setting the LLVM_DIR to the right place so I'm making this suggestion. My checkout method for clang, llvm and clang-tools-extra could be way out of date so feel free to ignore :) And thanks for your help with the diagnostics!

When I started writing a CFE tool the instructions I followed required building llvm, clang and clang-tool-extra from source. I guess as it's a feature of clang-tutor that you do not need to build from src the change in the README does not really make sense.
