Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Several user experience improvements can be made to the general cFS README.md to help brand new cFS users (like interns who've never encountered cFS before) through the installation process.

Describe the solution you'd like

  1. Add in a brief introductory statement at the very top explaining what cFS is.
  2. Under the "Setup and Build and Run" sections add a list of prerequisite software that should be preinstalled before cloning cFS (i.e. make, cmake, gcc, and git).
  3. Under the "Send commands, receive telemetry section" add in the specific installation commands for pyqt5, zmq, and libcanberra-gtk-module from the ground system's readme (I and some of my fellow interns ran into issues with installation because cFS was very picky in how these three were installed).
