Update developer instructions for cloning the Gerrit project
The core plugins are now included as git submodules. When cloning the gerrit project, the --recursive option must be used otherwise the submodules will not be cloned and the build will not work. Update the documentation accordingly. Change-Id: I02decd68a1de061b60d3e7b6ce2ffdd24d12505a (cherry picked from commit 4f2be538e7fa9f5ab67edf963615bd721a027285)
