README: Remove platform specific build requirements


The list is not up to date (e.g. ICU is not required on Windows anymore),
and woefully incomplete. Better just link to the wiki/documentation.

New dependencies in Qt 5

Linux: On systems running X11, the XCB libraries are required for
the platform plugin to build. qtbase/src/plugins/platforms/xcb/README
lists the required packages.
Qt 5 can make use of the ICU libraries providing Unicode and Globalization
support (see http://site.icu-project.org/). They are required for building
QtWebKit.
On Linux, they will be auto-detected.
On Windows, they need to be manually installed and the "include" and "lib"
folders of the ICU installation must be appended to the INCLUDE and LIB
environment variables after calling the Windows SDK setup script.
The "bin" folder of the ICU installation should be appended to the PATH
environment variable in order to for the DLLs to be found at run-time.
