[edk2-devel] [PATCH edk2-platforms 1/1] Platform/Ampere: Update Readme.md

["Rebecca Cran via groups.io" <rebecca=os.amperecomputing.com@groups.io>]

Improve the Readme.md in Platform/Ampere:

- At this point eMAG is irrelevant, and most people are likely
  using Altra systems. Drop mention of it.
- Instead of mentioning the 'latest' versions of CentOS and Ubuntu
  (which will by definition change over time), specify Ubuntu 22.04
  and CentOS 7.
- Fix the link to the acpica download, since content has been moved from
  acpica.org to intel.com.
- Assuming the build is being done on Linux, acpica shouldn't be built
  with a CYGWIN definition.
- To avoid making people wait ages for acpica to build, add `-j8` as an
  example of building in parallel.
