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. Task-number: QTBUG-54084 Change-Id: I6b22fc1c84d40b892503085cb023a7db25fd19c8 Reviewed-by: Simon Hausmann <simon.hausmann@qt.io>

- 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.
