Generate dest/ during build instead of commiting, and improve README #24

Closed ids1024 closed 3 years ago

I'm not sure if there's a reason dest/ was committed, but adding a simple Makefile and removing it from the repo seems to work well. This means not committing a .gzfile. This makes it possible to cleanly cherry-pick of a new package (for instance) from one branch to another without conflicts.

I also added some information to the README with what I figured out when trying to add a package here (for the configurator).

This PR is against master_hirsute, but there are also branches for bionic, focal, and groovy. If approved, I'll merge all of them. They are all the same except the bionic branch also adds a commit with the small change to the build.sh script the later branches already had.
