iOS build: update the README

A lot of this is still black magic, but at least this now documents what I
understand about the process.

Tool repo to crosscompile subsurface for iOS Tool repo to crosscompile subsurface for iOS
-------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------
This is very rough - the interaction between the different tools seems quite
fragile.
Dependencies: Dependencies:

1. XCode with iOS SDK and Qt5.5. See below - XCode with iOS SDK and Qt5.6
2. cmake - cmake
3. ant
4. dependencies of libdivecomputer and subsurface -

Have a look in the top of build.sh for where the cross build tool expects Have a look in the top of build.sh for where the cross build tool expects

Step 2. Step 3.
Run bash build.sh in the terminal. Run bash build.sh in the terminal.
The script will download and build the whole dependency chain. The script will download and build the whole dependency chain, but not the actual
Subsurface-mobile binary
After this, Subsurface-mobile will be built for iOS. Step 4.
Launch QtCreator with the Subsurface-mobile/Subsurface-mobile.pro
Build Subsurface-mobile in QtCreator - you can build for the simulator and for
a device and even deploy to a connected device.
This will likely require an Apple Developer account ($$$). In order to create a
bundle that can be distributed things get even more complex and the interaction
between QtCreator, Xcode and the Apple Developer Portal is still quite
confusing to me.
WARNING:
========
The version number used in the Subsurface-mobile app is created in step 3.
So whenever you pull the latest git or commit a change, you need to re-run the
build.sh script so that the Info.plist used by QtCreator (well, by Xcode under
the hood) gets updated. Otherwise you will continue to see the old version
number, even though the sources have been recompiled which can be very
confusing.
The output folder is subsurface-build-ios and your newly created package shows
up as:
subsurface-build-ios/.... something
