Adds minimal install advice on README.md

Browse source 
Makes it clear that one needs to install Docker for Desktop to use Dangerzone
on Mac or Windows and Podman on linux. The app itself will warn the user about
this, but we should state the prerequisites more clearly upfront.

Mentions mac and windows in INSTALL.md so that anyone reading this page does
not wrongly assume that Dangerzone is a Linux-only app.

Fixes #475
