[CrOS] Fix instructions for espeak-ng installation on Linux

Browse Source 
Previous instructions in 2530745 installed the whole espeak-ng tarball,
and not just the chrome-extension/ directory, under
/usr/share/chromeos-assets/speech_synthesis/espeak-ng .

Moreover attempt to provide instructions which would work on standard
linux / rodete to create the directory and set the permissions correctly.
