Update Linux build instructions for Docker

Browse Source 
Adds a short section to the Linux build instructions on getting Chromium
compilation to work in a Docker container. This is not a common setup,
but this should give anyone that does need to use it a good starting
place.

Most development is done on Ubuntu (currently 18.04, Bionic Beaver). There are
some instructions for other distros below, but they are mostly unsupported.
### Docker requirements
While it is not a common setup, Chromium compilation should work from within a
Docker container. If you choose to compile from within a container for whatever
reason, you will need to make sure that the following tools are available:
* `curl`
* `git`
* `lsb_release`
* `python3`
* `sudo`
There may be additional Docker-specific issues during compilation. See
[this bug](https://crbug.com/1377520) for additional details on this.
