Document compiler and assembler requirements.

The minimum version is purely based on what we've patched out of the perlasm
files. I'm assuming they're accurate.

* A C compiler is required. On Windows, MSVC 14 (Visual Studio 2015) or later
with Platform SDK 8.1 or later are supported. Recent versions of GCC (4.8+)
and Clang should work on non-Windows platforms, and maybe on Windows too.
To build the tests, you also need a C++ compiler with C++11 support.

* [Go](https://golang.org/dl/) is required. If not found by CMake, the go
executable may be configured explicitly by setting `GO_EXECUTABLE`.

* To build the x86 and x86\_64 assembly, your assembler must support AVX2
instructions. If using GNU binutils, you must have 2.22 or later.

## Building

Using Ninja (note the 'N' is capitalized in the cmake invocation):
