Change the build instructions

[DocSneider]

Maybe it would be ok to change the build-instructions like this:

1. DRV_NAME=rtl8821CU
2. DRV_VERSION=5.2.5.3
3. sudo mkdir /usr/src/${DRV_NAME}-${DRV_VERSION}
4. cd /tmp/
5. git clone https://github.com/whitebatman2/rtl8821CU.git
6. cd rtl8821CU/
7. git archive master | sudo tar -x -C /usr/src/${DRV_NAME}-${DRV_VERSION}
8. sudo dkms add -m ${DRV_NAME} -v ${DRV_VERSION}
9. sudo dkms build -m ${DRV_NAME} -v ${DRV_VERSION}
10. sudo dkms install -m ${DRV_NAME} -v ${DRV_VERSION}

Because some users are not so familiar with git.

Could you also add a comment in the instructions about the Net Manager bug and the fix echo -e "\n[device]\nwifi.scan-rand-mac-address=no" | sudo tee -a /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf

Ok so now im stuck here:

pi@raspberrypi:/tmp/rtl8821CU $ sudo dkms build -m ${DRV_NAME} -v ${DRV_VERSION}

Kernel preparation unnecessary for this kernel. Skipping...
